Unmarked cheese jar with remains of label: Fine / Black Currant Jam / W. & C. Volckman / ---- Bishopsgate St within / London. (United Kingdom) Household Jar Two tone, tan top, off white body. 127 mm. 1850s
Very Good. Small upper lip flake. Some nibbles to the lower lip. Couple of flakes to rear base. Front base edge has a flake that is part glazed over, but also labelled over, this is definitely from making. Crudely made. Some rust scattered around. Label is poor, but readable enough to know that it held black currant jam and not cheese! An interesting piece of history with label remnants in place. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $20 - 30
