Codd Bottle, Cascade Brewery Co, Tasmania c.1880
$185.00
Codd bottles were introduced in the 1870s and used an ingenious glass marble stopper, held against a rubber seal by the pressure of the carbonated drink inside. This example dates to around 1880 and is embossed “The Property of the Cascade Brewery Co Limited, Hobart,” giving it a direct connection to Tasmania’s early soft drink industry. It is 19.5cm high and is an interesting piece of Tasmanian bottling history from one of the state's oldest breweries.
