Fowler's Pottery / 7 / Estabd 1831. (New South Wales) Pottery Water Filter Salt Glaze Water Filter. 310 mm. 1880s
Very Good. Whilst not the largest filter I've handled, this is the densest! Extremely heavy, this is too heavy for post. Pick up or courier will be required for this one. Very interesting piece, possibly a commemorative item, maybe 50 years or 100 years, so 1881 or 1931? I have suggested the earlier date, but only guessing. There is a flake chip to inner rim over 23 x 15 mm. A few other small rim flakes. Some flakes to outer rim as well. Some minor flakes and wear to handles with one larger chip to left handle. Some stain. Glazed chip to base edge from making. Extremely sturdy and crude with some making splits and other marks, I've never seen anything like this in person. A great piece of Sydney pottery. Grade: 7.7 Estimate: $200 - 250
