Rowlands / & / Lewis. No potters stamp. (Ballarat, Victoria) (late Ern Taylor Collection). Ginger Beer. Cork Stoppered. Dump shape. Salt glaze. Impressed. 10 oz. 163 mm. 1860s
Good. (6.9). Filled chips on the outer lip of 8 x 4 and 5 x 4 mm. But also the top and inner lip has filling done over a good half of the circumference down to about 4 mm. Line of wear around the shoulder. Some wear generally around the body. A few deeper marks and scratches down the right side. Under these deeper marks at the base edge has been a big chip over about 50 x 20 mm and 10 mm up the side which has been well filled. The repairs on this are really quite good and fit in well with the bottle even though the ones at the lip in particular haven't been coloured at all. Only the second of these with the "&" that we've had through and the other one was a heavily rebuilt one in a group lot. (late Ern Taylor Collection). Estimate: $400-600
