Very Good. (7.8). But it is obviously missing the handle. Actually looks like it was broken off deliberately at some point. Rest of the jar is in brilliant shape. The potters stamp has a stutter and appears 1 and a bit times next to each other. Extremely fine curving hairline of up to about 70 mm just above the left base. Couple of clay pull type marks under the base itself. Just a little bit of wear around. Nice print. A rare Sydney Demijohn. Estimate: $200-400
