W I Thrower / (Elephant) / Launceston. No potters stamp. Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered All off white or light grey. Blue stamp. 10 oz. 162 mm. 1880s
Very Good. The right base edge has a shallow sliver type chip to the sharp edge over a total of about 50 mm, these are quite possibly pottery pulls from making. Some crude glaze misses to the rear. Stamp is very weak in the upper region, the trade mark and Launceston are quite legible. Glaze wear throughout causing the bottle to have a dull appearance. Lovely piece of Tasmanian made pottery, these are quite scarce. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $200 - 250
