E. Rich & Co Ltd / Sydney. No potters stamp. (New South Wales) Pottery Jar Stoneware. Bristol Glaze. Impressed. 1 Gallon. 330 mm. 1890s
Very Good. At the side base is a large chip of about 48 x 22 mm and up to about 5 mm deep. Back lip has a shallow 15 x 9 mm chip. Very fine 70 mm hairline in the mid back although there are also some fine dark scratches around here and it could just be one of them! Tiny paint spots around the shoulder and top that need a clean. Another couple of small flakes and the like at the base edge. The bottom of the first initial E hasn't really come out in the stamp so looks like an F. Quite a crude jar with a nice design to the top. Probably for Pickles or similar. Scarce item in solid condition that will be very nice with a good clean. Grade: 7.4 Estimate: $$100.00 - $150.00
