Read & Sons // Sutton (embossed around the base). Smooth, small round indent to base. Aerated Water Cork Stoppered Tall cylinder. Flat collar top. "Maugham" type shape but does stand up. Cobalt Blue. 10 oz. 230 mm. 1870s-1880s
Very Good. Polished. Seam lines largely invisible. Annealing marks on inside of applied lip. Slightly uneven lip, may be from making, or may have been polished down? Some pit marks and small fisheyes, most prominent around the base. A couple of little flakes off the embossing. Absolutely stunning colour and we'd imagine quite a scarce English mineral. Unusual and nice bottle. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $100 - 150
