Cascade Brewery Co Ld / Life Buoy / Trade Mark / Brand / (Life Buoy) / Sparkling Sparkling / Dandelion / Ale / Hobart Tasmania. Potters Stamp: Bourne / 1 / Denby. (Tasmania) Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered Blue lip. White Body. Black Print. 13 oz. 218 mm. 1890s
Very Good. Little flake to front lip, tiny nick around from this. Lower front lip has a little flake to the underside. Under lip there are two fine glaze hairlines spiralling down the neck, these are simply crazing marks and would be from the making process. Little impact to front base edge, really fine hairline comes up from this to the bottom black line on the stamp. Another really fine one comes up through the potters stamp at the rear, this is very hard to see as well. Rear base has a horseshoe crack along base edge and under base. Some scuffs and scratches to the glaze. Plenty of pinpricks and bumps to this bottle from making, a lovely piece, this is quite rare with the square lip. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $400 - 500
