M. E. Abbott / Trade (Phoenix) Mark / Launceston. Base mark: M. Aerated Water Codd Applied top. Four way pour, Dobson style patent with four dimples. Aqua. 13 oz. 225 mm. 1900s
Excellent. Very fine inner haze. Fine fisheyes scattered around, the largest at the front shoulder is 4 x 4 mm, a couple around the base edge are of similar dimensions. The front base just to the left has a patch of scratching, this goes up to the left of the embossing, and a couple of discoloured scratches go along the seam line near here. From the left seam around the base heel is a scuffed / scratched area going around to about the mid back, only near the base though. There are a series of fisheyes here as well. A few other small scratches to the rear. Series of little bubbles down the left front add to the crudity of this piece. A very nice looking example! Grade: 8 Estimate: $75 - 100
