M. J. Carey / (Galloping Horse / Pivot) / Kanowna. Impressed: Price / C1 / Bristol. (Western Australia). Demijohn. Printed. Stoneware Handled Demijohn. Internal Thread. Tan Top. Black Print. Tap Hole to back. 2 Gallon. 400 mm. 1900s
Excellent. (8). Just to the right of Kanowna is a 12 x 5 mm "chip" where a little iron spot has blown out in the kiln. There is a similar but smaller mark on the left shoulder. Body has dark surface scratches and scuffs. Bottom of the tap hole has two chips of 13 x 5 and 5 x 5 mm but again the edges of these actually look they occurred during making. Nice example of a very desirable and unusual Western Australian Demijohn. Estimate: $1500-3000
