Trade Mark / (JP within a diamond) / J. Pilkington. No potters stamp. (New South Wales) Ginger Beer Impressed Salt glaze. Impressed. 13 oz. 172 mm. 1880s
Very Good. Some minor lip wear and a couple of tiny glaze flakes. Glazed over lip chip from making. Little flake to lower lip. Some fine wear to sharp shoulder edge. Some nibbles and little flakes to the sharp base edge. Five sections around the base edge with dark hard substance that initially I thought were making marks, but these may actually be some rudimentary repair for some shallow flakes? Some minor scratches and a little wear. This is quite a hard bottle to get from the Newcastle region of New South Wales. Grade: 7 Estimate: $100 - 150
