This bottle always remains / The property of / Orme Keigwin & Co Ltd. Base Mark: 11187 / C. S. & Co Ld. (New South Wales) Spirits Liqueur Machine made. Amber. 1 Quart. 200 mm. 1920s
Very Good. Difficult to ascertain age, being made by Cannington Shaw and Co in the UK, I have a feeling this may be 1920s, but it may be a little later as well? Some possible stain amongst surface dirt internally. Quite dull to the surface externally, especially to the rear. Scrape type mark to base edge, like a scratch which has caused fine surface bruises along its edge. Plenty of scuffs and scratches throughout, some scratches are a little deeper than standard. An unusual bottle, we have seen other bottles and demijohns from Orme, Keigwin and Co, but this is the first of this style we have seen. Probably held some form of liqueuer. Grade: 7 Estimate: $20 - 30
