Tooth & Coy. Ltd. / Sydney. No potters stamp. (New South Wales) PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS MONSTER IS TOO BIG TO POST. Demijohn Printed All white with black print to lip. Unglazed. 5 gallon. 500 mm. 1920s
Good. The all important lip stamp is all there, but there is a large lip chip over a width of 50 mm. Two discoloured hairlines to upper lip. Inner lip edge is nibbled. This is glazed about half way down the neck, the rest is unglazed as it would have been in a wicker basket. There is a hairline to the body over only 300 mm or so! Sounds long, but this beast is huge so it is comparately not bad. Some discoloured scratchesand pathes of discolouration. Flake type marks under the base are from making. Little chip or two to base edge. This is a monster at around 5 gallons, and so is too large for the standard postal services. We haven't seen one of these before! Grade: 6.2 Estimate: $75 - 125
