Sold for A$20
Hayward Bros / Trade Mark / (Flag) / Registered / Christchurch. Parts of original label on the back. Base: 5466 / 1902 / C. S. & Co Ltd. (New Zealand). Household. Jar. Square. Applied top with recess inside for lid. Aqua. 2 Pound. 164 mm. 1900s
Very Good. (7.1). There is a really fine 35 mm fracture in the right side near the shoulder, this seems to be only partially through the thickness of the glass. Only minor marks otherwise. Little nibbled shallow flake to the inner lip edge at the rear. Surface bubble to the front heel. Bit of dirt and grime, largely because it is difficult to wash without wrecking what is left of the label, which is roughly 50%. Looks to have been oiled internally at some stage with some associated grime. Very attractive jar. Interestingly, you can see the label did once say Christchurch & London! We sold this very same jar in Auction 40.. Estimate: $75-100
