Rutherfords scotch whisky

[Rich918]

Looking to try find out about a Rutherforfs scotch whisky bottle to see if its worth anything, its a clay bottle with an old viking ship on the label sealed with a wax top

To my knowledge Rutherfords was a Glasgow wine and spirit merchant who specialised in bottling Scotch whisky in ceramic jugs/flagons which often depicted British game birds or ships. Some examples here https://www.masterofmalt.com/distilleries/rutherford-and-co-spirits-brand/

I don't think they fetch a great deal at auction, here is an example https://www.whiskyauctioneer.com/lot/60183/rutherfords-12-year-old-scotch-whisky-decanter

They did bottle both Scotch blended whisky and single malt whisky, is there any info/writing on the bottle which may indicate what the whisky is in your bottle, this could make a difference to its value.
