Genuine Antique Codd Marble Necklace in Sterling Silver
A unique piece of wearable history, this handcrafted sterling silver necklace features a genuine antique Codd bottle marble suspended within a bespoke silver setting.
Originally produced for Codd-neck bottles during the late Victorian and early twentieth-century period, these distinctive glass marbles were used as stoppers for carbonated drinks. Today, surviving examples are treasured by collectors for their history, character and connection to a bygone era.
The seafoam-green marble is beautifully frosted by time and displays a soft glow when it catches the light. Housed within a handcrafted sterling silver framework, the marble is free to rotate within its setting, allowing different angles of the glass to be appreciated as the pendant moves.
Decorative silver accents frame the antique marble without obscuring its beauty, creating a contemporary artisan design that celebrates both craftsmanship and history.
A Piece of History Invented by Hiram Codd in the 19th century, Codd bottles used glass marbles to create an airtight seal for fizzy drinks.
While most bottles were discarded or broken, some marbles survived and can now be appreciated as fascinating pieces of social history.
This pendant gives new life to one of those historic marbles, transforming it into a distinctive piece of jewellery while preserving its original character and charm.
