Original early metal top (although British Syphon Co) impressed Chas Cole & Co. Aerated Water Soda Syphon Round shape. Clear. 30 oz. 306 mm with top.. 1890s
Good. Top comes off easily and reveals a 20 mm crack on the back and a 7 mm bruise to the side. A lot of little chips, flakes and impacts around the base edge. Scratches and scuffs around the surface. A bit of stain inside. Some tiny fisheyes and marks around the surface. Quite a scarce variation of Chas Cole syphon, interestingly with the Cohn Bros stamp added to the back shows this syphon would have been in circulation for at least 30-40 years! Grade: 6.5 Estimate: $30 - 50
