Jose's / Mineral Waters // Geraldton. No makers mark. (Western Australia) . Aerated Water. Torpedo. Torpedo. Applied square top. Cobalt Blue. 10 oz. 235 mm. 1880s+
Very Good. (7.5). Hazy throughout. 2 x 2 mm nibbled surface impact near the J of Jose's. Another slightly smaller surface flake near this. Top part of the A of Geraldton is flaked. A couple of other little flakes and nicks to some of the other embossing. Just a few really little fisheyes and impact marks. Tiny nick or two. Some scratches and the odd little scuff mark. Only a couple of pitted scratches, but even then, not deep by any means. Nice see through colour. This is one of the best examples we have handled! Normally they are polished or repaired, this is neither! With minimal deep marks and the nice slightly lighter colour, this is a great item in my mind!. Estimate: $1000-1500
