Lot 144: Moorhouse Hulme Antique Blob Top Soda Bottle

« Back to Sale

Not Sold

Moorhouse / Trade (Lion) Mark / Hulme. No base mark. Aerated Water Cork Stoppered Applied top. Aqua. 13 oz. 184 mm. 1880s

Very Good. Polished. Little chip to upper right lip. Annealing splits right around the inner lip from making. Rear shoulder has a small patch of scratches and fine pits, another couple of patches to mid rear as well. Some scuffs to trade mark and scattered around the bottle. One or two fine impact marks. Usage wear under base. Wonderfully crude bottle with whittle marks throughout, any polish on this has been very light. The embossing is heavy with minor high point wear. The trade mark is hugely embossed. The upper part of the neck looks like extra has been crudely added to the mould to make this a bigger bottle? Not an Australian bottle, but a magnificent bottle it is! Grade: 7.6 Estimate: $50 - 75
