"Elephant" Brand / Poison / Arsenate of Lead / ???? Jaques Pty Ltd Burnley Vic. No potters stamp. Poison Jar Wide mouth stoneware jar. Tan top, off white base. Impressed stamp. Quart. 190 mm. 1910s
Very Good. There is some green paint on the back of the jar, we've cleaned quite a lot off but this last bit is stubborn, however being on the back is not too bad. At the front right base is a 10 x 6 mm chip. A couple of shallow flakes under the base, most likely from manufacture. Crazing throughout the jar. Parts of the stamp are a bit weak. Quite an unusual stoneware jar from Melbourne. Grade: 7.6 Estimate: $20 - 30
