W S (William Starkey) / T Field / Potter / Sydney. (New South Wales) Ginger Beer Impressed Dump shape. Salt Glaze. Impressed. 10 oz. 165 mm. 1850s
Repaired. Great looking bottle with a lovely coloured glaze. Looks like a large chip or piece of the top has been repaired on the left side. There is also some overpainting below the W S stamp and to the right of the stamp that looks like small chips have been filled. A 25 x 20 mm filled chip at the back base. A very fine hairline of about 85 mm down the back and a short and difficult to see hairline down the front shoulder. There is a little bit of wear elsewhere and some nibbles. Displays beautifully and the repairs have been very well done. Still a nice example of a very scarce double stamped Field ginger beer. Grade: N/A Estimate: $200 - 250
