Advance Australia / (Australian Coat of Arms) / Melbourne Adelaide Sydney Brisbane. Glassware Australiana Pressed glass souvenir plate. Golden Amber. 258 mm diameter. 1880s-1890s
Very Good. One of the decorative ridges around the edge (just past the E of Advance) has been chipped off and roughly replace with some resin. Scratches over the surface. Some manufacturing folds in the glass from the edges down into the angled edge of the plate in places. Some bubbles in the glass too. A shallow chip on the base edge looks to have been smoothed over, but with wear over it this was possibly even done at the time of making. Another very attractive display plate and one of a great series we have on offer in this auction. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $100 - 150
