Hi Lynette, The stoppers to these lattice poison bottles were sold separately. Many times, the users of the bottles simply used corks because it was cheaper. Also, the stoppers only came in blue, while the bottles came in blue, clear, green and amber. Congratulations on finding a 5" amber one. That is a very rare bottle that sells for around $1500!! I would love to see a picture of it. I have only seen one of them in the past year, they appear VERY infrequently. Nice find Jim
