E. Hurst & Co / (Rampant Lion) / Beechworth // Lamont's / (Hand holding bottle) / Patent // (around base) John Lamont Maker Glasgow. Aerated Water Lamont Applied top. Aqua (with yellowish/lime tinge). 10 oz. 221 mm. 1885-1887
Very Good. Tumble cleaned. Outside shows signs of tumble cleaning but retains most of its original character. Scratches are evident but have been shined over a bit from the tumbling. Some of the embossing and seam lines are weak but I suspect they were that way from manufacture. Inside is still just lightly dull. There is a deeper 25 mm long scratch on the back shoulder. Glass has a lovely lime tinge to it. Nice example of a scarce/rare Lamont. Grade: 7.85 Estimate: $150 - 250
