A. A. Billson / Trade / A B / B / Mark / Beechwoorth // Breffit's / Makers / London. Base Mark: 7022. Aerated Water Lamont Applied top. Amber lip. Aqua. 13 oz. 221 mm. 1889-1897
Good. Polished. Oiled. Small impact flake to front upper lip looks to have been smoothed over in the polish. Flake to inner right lip, looks like there has been another to inner rear lip which has been polished over. Looks like there may have been some minor upper lip work too. Little nick to right shoulder. Dull under base. This has been pretty ordinary prior to the polish. There is some fine etching remaining internally. Externally there are pitted scratches throughout, some fisheyes and impact marks. The embossing has plenty of these marks around it as well, and is rounded, possibly from the polish job. A rare and desirable bottle. Grade: 6 Estimate: $500 - 750
