Sold for A$100
A. Walton & Co. Limited / Confectioners / Adelaide. No base mark. Household Lolly Jar Applied, roll lip. Aqua. Quite large. 224 mm. 1880s
Excellent. There is a large cork in place. Some light hazy stain internally toward the base. Some scuffs around the shoulder. Scratch to the glass from top to bottom at the rear. Another scratch to right near seam on lower half. Other light scratches scattered around. Some usage wear under the base with a couple of tiny flakes. The base has a most unusual swirled series of a mass of airbubbles from tiny through to quite large. Initially I thought the inner base was dirty, but it is in fact the myriad of bubbles within the glass. There are a couple of shallow open bubbles throughout. Wonderful example of an unusual jar. Grade: 8.5 Estimate: $100 - 150
