C H Hoffmeyer & Co / Wine & Spirit Merchants / Sandhurst. No potters stamp. (Victoria) Demijohn Impressed Salt glaze. Impressed. 2 Gallon. 412 mm. 1880s
Very Good. Small flake to outer right lip. Glaze drip from making to front lip has some shallow flaking from the glaze only. A few tiny flakes to the base edge. There is a hairline diagonally to the rear over about 230 mm, I nearly missed this, some of it is barely visible at all! Some minor spots of wear to the glaze. Making marks throughout. A lovely large salt glaze demijohn that would have been made by the Bendigo Pottery (unmarked). Nice, clear impression on this one. Grade: 7.3 Estimate: $200 - 250
