J J & J. Rousse / Old Champaign / 1795 / Cognac / Bordeaux (On applied seal). Base Mark: (Dot). Wine Cognac Applied string rim. Applied seal. Shouldered. Green. 26 oz. 279 mm. 1850s
Excellent. A few of the typical nibbles and small flakes around the lip edge. Patch of rust to upper rear neck. Some fine inner dirt, this should wash out. Remains of a label across the front, looks like it had a large coat of arms with a lion on the right, I can see parts of Bordeaux at the bottom of it. A few minor scratches and marks. A great piece, Rousse is one of the rarer sealed cognacs. Grade: 8.7 Estimate: $400 - 500
