Wm Norton Burroughs. / Wine Spirit & Porter Merchant / No 2 Market Place. / Gt Yarmuth. / 1 Gall. No potters stamp. (United Kingdom). Demijohn. Impressed. Applied slab seal. Tan top, off white body. 1 Gallon. 318 mm. 1850s
Very Good. (7.2). 25 x 4 mm lightly flaked section to outer front lip edge. In fact, much of the lip edge has a thin band of wear through the glaze with a flake or two as well. Tiny nick to inner lip edge. Couple of tiny nicks to edge of slab seal. Some crazing. Body looks discoloured, I have a feeling much of this is the way it was made though? 15 x 7 mm chip under heel is likely a potters pull from making. Some scratches and minor marks. Nice looking demijohn which is rather early.. Estimate: $100-150
