A pair of Flight, Barr and Barr ice pails, covers and liners circa 1815-20

painted with a band of trailing flowering branches, impressed crowned FBB mark.

One cooler has an approximate 1/2-inch chip to one corner of the foot and a 3/4-inch flat chip to the underside of the scallopped rim, both hardly noticeable from the exterior. The same vase has two minor restored parts to one handle, one is to the ear of the ram and the other to the tip of the floral molding on the top. The other cooler has two small flat chips to the underside of the scallopped rim, which are not readily visible to the eye. The liners both with some rubbing to the gilt rim. The knob on one cover has been off and well-restored.
