Barrett Bros / Trade (BB) Mark / North Fitzroy / British Syphon Co. London / Rd No 762. No base mark. Has the correct Barrett Bros top in place. Aerated Water Soda Syphon Fluted, tapered syphon. Lime green/yellow. 30 oz. 315 mm with top. 1910s
Good. Top is stuck in place, we presume the lip is fine. A little inner soda stain. Nibbled flakes to a few ribs on base edge. 30 x 10 mm angled fracture at front near base edge is actually quite hard to see - I nearly missed it. A few flakes to ribs on the body, one or two are from impact marks and are a bit larger than standard. A few fine fisheyes which are small. Typical usage scratches to the body, although not too bad in this instance. A nice and very rare Melbourne syphon with the original top in place. Grade: 6.7 Estimate: $200 - 250
