Reed Bros is Excellent. The most interesting aspect of this bottle is that the back left top has a large chip that has been glazed over! It left the pottery like this somehow. It has dirt inside and only minor marks outside. The Chapman is Good. It has a large filled chip to the back top and a couple of small filled chips at the base edge. None of these have been coloured over. Only some minor marks and scuffs to the surface. Displays pretty well and just needs the repairs completed properly. Really interesting pair of bottles. Grade: N/A Estimate: $$50.00 - $70.00
