FIG. 1 is a front isometric view of a synthetic cork for a liquid
container, such as a bottle of wine, showing my new design; the rear
isometric view being substantially similar, the only difference being the
random surface indicia thereon.
FIG. 2 is a front side elevational view thereof; the rear side elevational
view being substantially similar; and,
FIG. 3 is a top plan view thereof; the bottom plan view being identical
thereto. The broken lines in FIGS. 1-3 are for illustrative purposes only
and form no part of the claimed design.
The characteristic feature of my new design resides in the surface indicia
of a marbled texture with a visible random curling effect.
