Very Good. The top of the lip has heavy wear right through the glaze / glaze flaking around most of the lip. There is one deeper mark on top of the lip amongst this area with no glaze. There are some small rust spots. The body of the bottle has general glaze wear, with a good half dozen or so patches where there is approximately 1 cm square of glaze worn through, these are not deep, but they are dull spots. The rest of the bottle has many smaller areas of dull spots. The base has a flake chip under the potters stamp, 9 x 8 mm. There is some minor wear either side of this at the base edge as well. There is a small 5 x 2 mm impact mark under the base and another smaller one or two to be found as well. These are an imposing bottle that look great in a ginger beer collection. Grade: 7.1 Estimate: $50 - 75
