Corks are a type of stopper or seal used to close up bottles of wine and other drinks or items. It is generally made of a piece of cork cut from the bark of a cork tree and then compressed to fit into the bottle mouth.

Corks have been used to preserve drinks since the Roman Empire, though in the past they have also been used to hold cosmetics and other items. Over time, the design has evolved and become more sophisticated, with the modern cork containing several layers of material to ensure a perfect seal.
