Lot 652: Rowlands Farmer Miner Amethyst Cordial Bottle

« Back to Sale

Sold for A$10

E. Rowlands / Trade / Registered 6 January 1880 / (Farmer and Miner) / Mark. Base Mark: (Looks like a square?) Household Cordial Applied top, tooled finish. Octagonal shape with blob top. Amethyst. 26 oz. 265 mm. 1910s

Good. Looks better, but has been oddly polished. Actually looks like it may have been buffed and not tumbled. The embossing is rounded, in fact quite flat in places. To the right of trade the upper part of the shield and January 1880 are almost gone! The corners are all distinctly sharp due to each panel being separately buffed. A couple of flakes and a little discoloured bruise to base edge. Remains of scratches and possible buffing marks can still be seen. Looks good on the shelf, just don't look too closely. Grade: 6.5 Estimate: $50 - 75
