Flaske fra 1800 tallet (brusflaske)

Svært sjelden torpedoflaske fra Kristiania Mineralvannfabrikk. Flasken ble funnet i en kasse med sildegarn hvor den har fungert som flottør/flyteelement. Flasken har en fastlimt treplugg som topp. Utmerket samlerstand!

"Torpedo bottles, also known as Hamilton bottles, were used for aerated or carbonated water. They were oval shaped with a neck at one end, and were deliberately designed so that they could not be stored upright. The goal was to keep the cork wet so that it did not dry out and crack, thereby releasing the carbonation. Torpedo bottles were in common use from the 1840s to the 1870s, when they were superseded by the Codd bottle."
