J. G. Derwin / (J.G.D within a diamond) / Parkes. Base Mark: S. Aerated Water Codd Applied top, spun finish. Four way pour dobson style patent with four dimples. Aqua. 13 oz. 231 mm. 1910s
Good. Polished. Some splits to the lip from making. Some dark spots around lip and base from where the bottle was held in place during polishing, these will soak out. Small flake behind right seam at neck. Small dint in bottom is a making mark. Quite misshapen being rather flat in the mid body region. This was either removed from the mould and handled too early when made, or has been heat effected since, we are leaning towards the latter. Still has evidence of scuffs, scratches and fisheyes throughout. Grade: 6.6 Estimate: $30 - 40
