Weaver & Co. / Dandelion / Hobart. Potters Stamp: Price / 51 / Bristol. (Tasmania) Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered Two tone, dark chocolate top, off white body. Black print. 13 oz. 213 mm. 1890s
Repaired. New top has been stuck on from the join between the body and the coloured top. The correct top has been used. The lip of the top has had some chipping repaired to it. This top is shiny. The body is dull as the glaze has pretty much worn off throughout. Crack from left shoulder down towards left body. Crack down most of the rear, splits into two for a short section near the repair at the shoulder. Some nibbled flakes under the base. Quite a clever cut and shunt job here, this actually looks great on the shelf, the matt finish to the body sort of sets it off somehow. Certainly a unique example, a good gap filler for the money conscious collector. Grade: 0 Estimate: $$100.00 - $150.00
