Introduced in 1873 by English inventor Hiram Codd, Codd-Neck or Globe-Stoppered bottles were among the first bottle designs to allow mineral water and other carbonated beverages to be widely distributed in bottled form. A secure seal was achieved using a glass marble forced by internal pressure against an internal rubber o-ring. Due to the introduction of cheaper sealing systems like "crown corks" (AKA bottle caps), Codd-Neck bottles are otherwise rarely seen today outside of Japan and India.
