The screw on bottle cap was introduced in the early 1960s, eliminating the need to use bottle openers, first in sodas, then a little later, bottled beer and now, good grief, wine!!! However, there are some (bless them) companies that refuse to bottle their beer or wine using these convenient but annoying screw on lids!
water bottle, clock winders, jars, any bottle caps....
A home brewing supply store will carry bottle caps.
There are many companies and websites that offer retro bottle caps that are from the 1950s. Some of these websites that offer bottle caps are The Bottle Cap Museum and Northern Express.
Bottle caps are made not out of PET plastic because that would make the separation from the bottle imposible, PET does not float, so the caps have to be HDPE, PP or other plastic that is less dense than water, thus makin the separation process posible when the bottles are recycled.
If you are thinking about the screw top type or the "press cap" - (beer bottle types) then a outlet that sells home brew equipment and ingredients is a good place to start
bottle caps boi degradeable
On bottles....... -.-

The first modern bottle cap was a screw-on cap invented in 1856. There was also a recloseable wire-and-cap type of bottle cap invented in the same year, still used today on some high-end beers such as Grolsch. The modern "crown cap" bottle cap was invented in 1890, modernized to the "pilfer proof" cap in 1936, and twist-off bottle caps in 1966. Bottle caps are no longer manufactured today, as most people drink their beer straight from their high-speed internet connection. :)
A screw has external threads, so methinks the screw-top BOTTLE is really the screw, and the cap a mere receptacle. Yes. And a screw is really a modified wedge or incline.
