I need to find some small corks that will fit this bottle a friend of mine has. It from France and has 4 chambers in it. Here are a couple pictures of it. If anyone knows where I can find small corks or has an idea I would appreciate any help. The sizes of the openings are roughly .48 tapering to .435 (12.21mm to 11.06).

If you just need just 4 then check Lowe's. The store here sells corks. But if you need to buy several of them, then the cheapest I've found is from http://www.sunburstbottle.com Or, I could send you 4 corks.
Do a good turn daily!

Thanks Don that is what I needed. I looked at home depot and they didn't have any. I can look at lowes later and check out that site.

I think he is also wanting to know if I can turn some little toppers to go with it.

Tom,
At the local Lowes, the stoppers are in the drawers wtih the special screws and fasteners on the same isle with the other screws and bolts.

Dennis he saw another one on an antique auction site and it claimed it was a Brandy type. He is looking at doing something like that too with it.

Thanks Don I never even knew they carried them. I like that site too.

You could always get a few bigger corks and turn them to the appropriate size, or get some rubber stoppers, turn them to the appropriate size, and add a wood or PR top to it.
