Bouteille 50 cl, « Cordon », Type CO

champagne finish or style / (applied) string rim

The champagne finish is distinguished by being (or appearing to be) a flat band of glass wrapped around the outside circumference of the upper neck just below the top rim (lip) surface about 1/8" to 1/4".

upper part of the finish to which a cap would seal itself is the 'sealing surface'. The diameter of the aperture
opening is the 'bore'. Sometimes a ring of glass is placed around the neck at the base of the finish in order
to secure the closure,...
