Hillier & Co / Three / (Three stars) / Star / Newtown. Smooth base. (New South Wales). Aerated Water. Codd. Codd original or one way pour. Applied top. Aqua. 10 oz. 232 mm. 1900s
Very Good. (7.5). Stained throughout including a bit of an etched feel to the surface. This has a fabulous opalescent sheen throughout, very effective really. Little dimpled mark to outer front lip is a making mark. Little nibbled mark to bottom of left lip. Mid right chamber has a small patch of pitted wear. Bubble to lower left has a small crescent moon fisheye type mark across it. Small open bubble to right base edge. Pitted scratch to right at end of the neck groove. A few other short pitted scratches, but not a lot. Some little fisheyes and impact marks, but again, not a large number. Nice embossing has only some minor marks, better than usual. Despite the stain, this is a really good example, in fact, I believe the stain adds to the appeal. Estimate: $200-300
