1 (on lip) / Arnold Bros / 3 Errol St / North Melbourne / Drink Telegraph Wines & Spirits. Potters stamp: Hoffman Coy / Pottery Works / Brunswick. (Victoria) Demijohn Impressed Handled Demijohn. Impressed. Tan Top. Gallon. 328 mm. 1900s
Very Good. The top part of the demijohn has some lacquer and overpainting. The only damage we've been able to find after scraping back some of the paint seems to be a crack and minor chipping to the upper join of the handle. Everywhere else reveals solid original surface underneath and there is no sign of any damage inside when checking with a borescope. Body is a bit discoloured with some light scuffs. Nice strong impressed stamp. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $150 - 200
