The soda siphon (sometimes spelled syphon), also known as the seltzer bottle, siphon seltzer bottle, or just siphon is a device for storing and dispensing carbonated beverages (typically carbonated water) while maintaining the internal pressure, thereby preventing it from going flat. The carbonated beverage is dispensed using the internal pressure of the bottle, so the setup is not a true siphon in its operation.
The first metal syphons were made by Sparklets Corporation in the USA. The item is one of the first of the coloured siphons in a beautiful ruby red colour. Very limited 2 year run before it evolved in to the taller Hostmaster Mk2. This model is difficult to find.
Base markings: Serial SC/Z Sparklets Limited Made in England
The siphon comes without the charger holder and drip tray. It does however come with the original water tube and washer. The body has age related wear and a few areas of paint loss.
