(Liver Bird) embossed on the shoulder. (Attributed to Robert Feast). No Base Mark. Goldfields Pickle Applied top. Square section pickle. Aqua. Pint. 230 mm. 1860s

Excellent. Appears to have had oil internally, would have been a very fine haze at worst. A few light scuffed patches externally. Tiny flake to side base, 5 x 3 mm but exceptionally shallow. Plenty of nice bubbles and crude marks in the glass, this is a great example of a very early pickle bottle. Grade: 8.4 Estimate: $20 - 30
