(Applied Seal) S. Lognac with cross hatching either side. Deep punt to base. (Claret wine from Bordeaux) Wine Sealed Claret shape. Applied ring to top, Shear cut lip. Olive Green. Applied seal. 26 oz. 287 mm. 1860s
Very Good. Some nibbles and little flakes around the lip. Some fine inner dirt looks like it will wash out. A few small surface flakes in a row below the seal. Some scuffs and scratches. A couple of little surface flakes to rear shoulder. Tiny inclusion to rear has a tiny star fracture. Australian found, it appears most of the Lognac claret came in to Melbourne during 1864 & 1867 although the wine itself could be vintages from the 1850s. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $75 - 125
