Ginger Ale Extract / R. O'Donnell & Co / Melbourne. No potters stamp. (Victoria) Demijohn Impressed Handled stoneware demijohn. Tan top. Impressed. 1/2 Gallon. 240 mm. 1890s
Excellent. Some crazing to the tan areas. Chip to side handle is from making as it has been glazed over. A couple of minor base edge flakes. Some discolouration in places, mainly to the left and rear. A superb demijohn with the speckled neck glaze, this is vastly different to the other example in this auction. Unusual demijohn from an aerated water maker (O'Donnell & Co also had a Lamont and were taken over by C. R. Goulding). Grade: 8.4 Estimate: $200 - 300
