Very Good. (7). The handle has been broken but the two original pieces that were broken off have been glued back in to place. There are some chips and the like around the joins with a couple of bigger ones to the middle join. The side of the handle has an impact mark with a fracture that runs for about 40 mm. Little chip of 5 x 4 mm to the right lip but there is also some glaze wear and fleabites behind it. Inner lip has little fleabites and glaze wear also. The odd scratch. Stain on the base. A few kiln marks. Nice stamp. Good looking example of a small country Victorian Demijohn. Estimate: $500-1000
