E. Fowler / (Figure 8) / Sydney. (New South Wales) Ginger Beer Impressed Convict ginger beer. Impressed. 10 oz. 168 mm. 1840s
Excellent. Rear lip has an extremely fine hairline which goes down the shoulder to about the shoulder edge, although it is hard to see as it is so extremely fine. Left shoulder edge has a small kiln kiss type mark. Discoloured surface scratch to front shoulder. Tiny chip to front base edge is likely a pottery pull. Lovely grey colouration, the glaze has a little dullness to it. Lovely tapered shape, superb deep and crisp impression, a great example. Grade: 8 Estimate: $1000 - 1250
