1. Excellent. The first one we have sold with no potters stamp, they are usually either Pinnacle Brand, or Bendigo pottery stamped bottles. Grime to upper and inner lip. There is some silicon on upper lip? Why it is there is unknown as the lip seems quite sound underneath. Dark stain to right shoulder will scrape off. Couple of spots of white paint to be found which will scrape off. A little surface rust down the left. A few discoloured spots. Some glaze misses. A few minor scratches. Little impact surface flake under base. Tiny blowout to the front. Should clean up really nicely. 2. Very Good. This example has Ltd added to the end. Interestingly, whilst we have sold a few of the Ltd version, this is the first of these we have sold with the Pinnacle Brand stamp - normally they have the Bendigo Pottery stamp. A little minor upper lip wear and some grime. Some minor wear and nibbles to shoulder along with a small kiln kiss. Patch of crazing down rear, there is either a very fine glaze hairline amongst this or a scratch, I really cannot tell. Another similar mark around from this is almost certainly a scratch. Also has fine crazing down the front. Some rusty marks scattered around. A few odd dark marks, one is definitely an ink spot at the base edge. The impressed potters stamp is very deep and clear. At the base edge on right side is a chasm! This is a making split, but is wide and deep, it comes up the bottle 18 mm and goes under the base about 12 mm. An interesting pair of bottles. Grade: N/A Estimate: $50 - 75
