Sanoline Tooth Paste / (Three Geisha Girls) / For Whiteness & Purity / Lorimer & Co / Manufacturing Perfumer / London & New York / Three Gold Medals 1884. Pot Lid Tooth Paste Black print on white lid. 85 mm diameter. 1890s
Fair. This has been burnt and is black all over. There no longer appears to be any glaze on this either, it is dull throughout. Plenty of crazing. This has a strong odour to it, not sure if it is from the burning of the lid, or possibly it has been soaked in some chemical in an attempt to clean it. A nice lid that would be a challenge to bring back to showable condition. You may be able to clean it up so that it is whiter, it would be a good example for now if so. Grade: 5 Estimate: $100 - 150
