Rockingham Glaze Barrel. Impressed: 4 Gals. / Premier / S. A. / Pottery. (South Australia). Pottery. Premier. 4 gallon barrel with Rockingham style dark brown glaze. 380 mm. 1910s
Fair. (5). Main thing is that this would have had an applied spigot surround for the tap, as can clearly be seen, this has unapplied itself! Flake to front right rim, horseshoe crack near this over about 30 x 10 mm. Rear rim has a chunky chip of about 40 x 20 mm out of it. A few little nicks and glaze flakes otherwise to the rim. Some scuffed deeper scratches through the glaze to the wider part of the body, some other scratches and scuffs to a lesser extent elsewhere. Overall, not a bad piece of South Australian pottery. Estimate: $40-60
