M. J. Roche // Melbourne. No makers mark. (Victoria) Aerated Water Torpedo Applied square collar top. Aqua. 10 oz. 209 mm. 1850s
Very Good. Polished. Etching remains inside the bottle. The top is very crude, there seems to be a chip inside the top lip but then this actually is where the glass is folded over. On the bottom side of the applied top is an 11 x 3 mm discoloured filled chip. A really nice example of this early Melbourne torpedo. Grade: 7.3 Estimate: $100 - 150
