W S (William Starkey) / T Field / Potter / Sydney. (New South Wales) Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered Dump shape. Salt Glaze. Impressed. 10 oz. 164 mm. 1850s
Excellent. There is a really fine jagged hairline around half of the top. A few glaze flakes at the shoulder. Most marks look to be from the kiln during making. Very shallow 6 x 6 mm chip at the left base edge. A few other really small base edge flakes and nibbles. Chalk in the impressed stamps to highlight them. Nice orange/brown colour. Great example of a scarce double stamped Field ginger beer. Grade: 8.1 Estimate: $500 - 750
