R & Co / A / 2 Gal // 52. (New South Wales) Demijohn Impressed Impressed with hand done lettering. Salt Glaze. 2 Gallon. 374 mm. 1860s+
Poor. Missing around two thirds of the top with a chip at the back top as well. We have presumed New South Wales as that is where it was found. The wooden stopper and wire handle were with it. Looks to be very early. Lovely glaze and the impressed Initials and numbers are crude yet really nicely done at the same time. Would be great to have a definite history on this one. Give it has the size and a number at the back presumably from a brewery so how many R & Co's were from towns starting with A? Grade: 4.9 Estimate: $70 - 100
