Max Pincus / Otto of Rose / Cold / Cream / Castlemaine. (Victoria). Pot Lid. Cosmetics. Medium round pot lid. Black & White. No base. 68 mm diameter. 1890s
Excellent. (8.4). Typical fine crazing from manufacture, this is slightly discoloured in places. 4 x 2 mm discoloured flake to inner flange wall, this is only just through the glaze and very minor. Little stain to outer flange near the C of Castlemaine. No base with this one. Great example of a very rare country Victorian pot lid. Only the second complete example that we have sold, but this one is far better with the previous example having a repaired flange. Estimate: $1500-2000
