J. T. Gayen / Altona // - // (Castle and lions) // - // No Base Mark. Spirits Schnapps Applied lip. Square. Dark Green. 13 oz. 192 mm. 1880s
Very Good. The lip is extremely crudely made with crude mould marks and plenty of bubbles. There is one part of the lip, however, that appear to have had some resin applied to disguise a small chip. This blends in well with the crude lip (this was only detected by a slightly different feel, not from sight). A couple of shallow flakes from the sharp mould lines at the base of the bottle. Very lightly dull, there is some internal dirt as well. A great looking example of this pictorial schnapps bottle. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $40 - 50
