McKay Bros / Burrumbuttock. No potters stamp. Demijohn Impressed Two tone, handled demijohn with flat lip. Chocolate top on off white body. Impressed. Half Gallon. 237 mm. 1920s
Excellent. Little spot of wear part way through the glaze on the front lip. A couple of making splits to the pottery on the inner neck. Tiny glaze flake to rear handle. Little pottery blow out between C and K of McKay, another little one to left shoulder which appears to be a spot where the glaze has popped. Some light scuffs and scratches to the upper body. Around the base edge is uneven, this is just from making. We believe this demijohn is the only one currently known, this extreme rarity combined with the attractive small size and superb condition make this a must for the demijohn collector. Grade: 8.7 Estimate: $400 - 600
