Circa 1850-1860 Pontiled Deep Blue Southern Soda - A. P. Smith, Charleston, SC

Seldom seen for sale, here is an exceptional colored Smith from Charleston. The vibrant cobalt color in the body is snazzy enough, but it's like a two tone bottle with a deeper midnight blue in the neck and top. Nice embossing strike. Frosted iron pontil scar on the bottom. Applied tapered blob top.

Embossed: A. P. SMITH / CHARLESTON / S. C.

Height: 7 7/8" 
Color: deep purplish cobalt blue

Condition: almost perfect structurally - no chips or cracks, but there is a slight ghost bruise in the top of the lip that is easily missed and no real harm. It looks like it was lightly cleaned and is spotless. Just a few very light surface scratches here and there. A great example.

Reference Number:  BT67

Price: $425
