Sold for A$570

Green Aqua bulged flared lip bottle with nine pronounced ribs. Base Mark: (British Registration Diamond). (Registered on the 16th of October 1849 by Westwood & Moore, The Bottle Works, Brierley Hill, Dudley). Goldfields Salad Oil Applied top, flared lip. Aqua. 26 oz. 274 mm. 1850s

Near Mint. Brilliant looking bottle. The base edge of one of the ribs has a 9 x 7 mm chip that is actually a burst bubble around the end of the raised rib. Some fine marks otherwise. A stunning bottle. We sold a blue one back in Auction 36 and in fact I don't recall seeing these in this green-aqua colour before? Registered on the 16th of October 1849 by Westwood & Moore, The Bottle Works, Brierley Hill, Dudley. Salad oil, vinegar or something else as contents? Not sure, but it is a very early and very nice bottle! Grade: 9 Estimate: $600 - 800
