Six green eye baths. Medicine Eye Bath Six green eye baths. 59 - 65 mm. 1900s

Most are near mint. From left to right: Embossed under base is Made in England with a W in a bevelled rectangle. The pedestal base edge has wear around its circumference, very little else to report. Next is an apple green sort of colour. This has a thin sliver from the base edge and some making surface annealing marks. The next one also has Made in England with a W in a bevelled rectangle under the base. This has a curved airbubble type mark on the inner side which looks like a fracture, but is a making mark. I just noticed that the stem has been reglued on this one - nearly missed it! The next example has 1494 underneath. Has some grime and minor making marks. The second last one has British Made and a 2 under the base. This has a couple of small flakes under the base. Some minor nicks to the seam near the rim on outer body. Some minor grime and marks. Lastly is a blue green example, maybe emerald or turquoise? There is a tiny inclusion to the side with a tiny surface bruise associated. Some scratches to the stem. This one looks earlier and is a stunning colour. A nice set of eye baths, we have several on offer in this auction. Grade: N/A Estimate: $100 - 150
