Chas Cole & Co / Trade / (Bird and fish) / Mark / Geelong. No makers mark. Aerated Water Torpedo Applied top, spun finish. Clear. 13 oz. 234 mm. 1900s-1910s
Very Good. Polished. 6 x 5 mm rear lip bruise. A few small fisheyes on the lip as well. Glass is shiny from polishing, seam lines and embossing have been protected and are prominent. Evidence of scratches throughout that are shiny from the polishing process, partially disguising them. A few fisheyes in general around the bottle. Evidence of some hand work done on both sides and below the embossing during the polishing process. This bottle looks great on display, and is an extremely rare variation of Geelong torpedo. Grade: 7.2 Estimate: $800 - 1000
