CHECK OUT WHY BOTTLES HAVE INDENTS AT THE BASE

You might have noticed the huge indents under glass bottles, but they are not simply to add style or support. These are the reasons :-

1.They help distribute pressure evenly when the bottle is being corked, which is why champagne bottles have the deepest indents.

2.To disperse the sediment, and hinder it from rising up when poured.

3.The large indent in the base of wine bottles is known as a punt. It is intended to strengthen the bottle.

4.To create the optical illusion that the bottle is bigger of course. Cosmetics manufacturers have taken this technique several steps further.
