R. Mosley / Globe Mineral / Water Works / Robt Mosley / Trade (Globe with RM Initials) Mark / Registered / Flemington Bridge / Melbourne. Basemark: M. Aerated Water Codd Four way or Dobson type. Applied top. Aqua. 26 oz. 279 mm. 1900s
Very Good. Polished. Very nice example of this large format marble bottle. Hard to get brand in this size. Polishing has left fairly smooth surfaces around the body. Seam line is difficult to see on one side and around the neck area on both sides is largely gone. Embossing is nice and strong, it shows some pitting and flakes to some of the surface. There are some small pit marks and small fisheye type marks on the surface. A few light scratches can be found. There is a very shallow and difficult to see 6 x 4 mm bruise to the top of the side lip - at least partially hidden by the fact it is combined with a mould mark. Great looking and scarce large Melbourne marble bottle. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $600 - 750
