Antique Demijohn "Dame Jeanne"

KDJ025

Used

This is a beautiful authentic antique onion shape clear Demijohn, circa 1840-1890.

We can see two seams that show it was hand-blown in mould, the uneven shape and air bubbles trapped within its surface attest it.

The neck has a hand applied ring, circling the mouth and the lip is not smooth showing how it was broken off from the rod after being blown.

 Under: "5"

Magnifique!
