(Maltese Cross) / Dillon / Burrows / & Co / Melbourne. No base mark. Household Lolly Jar Applied, roll lip. Aqua. Quite enormous. 290 mm. 1900s
Excellent. Couple of small inner lip flakes. Light scuffs around the shoulder. Very fine stress star crack on the inside just above the star, this is only on the inner surface of the glass, it does not go all the way through. Both the left and right seam has a series of horizontal grooves cut across them, not sure what has caused these? There are some scratches to the surface throughout, a long one up the rear, a couple of shorter, slightly deeper ones to the front. Some usage wear under the base. Overall, a nice example of this large lolly jar from Melbourne. The matching glass lid has some nibbles around the outer edge, there are some flakes under this edge as well. Grade: 8 Estimate: $250 - 300
