Ten sided wide mouth pickle with label space. No base mark.. Goldfields. Pickle. Applied top. Ten sided wide mouth pickle with label space. Aqua. 6 oz. 164 mm. 1860s
Very Good. (7.5). A bit dull internally, this does look mostly like some fine dirt though which should mostly soak out. Crude folds to lip from making. Another fold across base edge from making. Small flake near base edge. Around from this at the base edge is a small nibbled impact mark. A few scuffs and some minor scratches. We have called this a pickle, but may have had some other food type item in it due to the small size. Certainly looks quite early. May have been lightly lacquered at some stage.. Estimate: $50-75
