Sturgeon's / Preserved Milk. No makers mark.. Aerated Water. Torpedo. Applied square lip. Bulged neck. Aqua. 26 oz. 254 mm. 1850s
Excellent. (8.4). 3 x 2 mm very shallow and minor surface flake to upper left lip. Even smaller and more minor mark to upper rear lip. Some minor scuffs and the odd scratch, nothing overly deep and not a lot of them either. A shiny bottle with lovely whittle to the glass. I have listed this under aerated waters purely to slot it in amongst the torpedo bottles, however, it is as it says on the bottle, a milk bottle! And what a milk bottle it is! A very rare and very early piece, these are highly desired Worldwide with the few examples known coming out of Tasmania! A Worldwide classic! Estimate: $2000-3000
