Fair. Right side base has had a hole repaired with some type of resin. This is 22 x 10 mm, there is still a tiny hole in the corner of this repair. A 30 mm crack comes up from this, there is also some scratching in this area where the repairer has sanded the glass. At the bottom of the repair is a fracture over about 40 mm, most of this fracture is exceptionally difficult to detect as it goes along the base corner edge. Otherwise the bottle is lightly dull all over with some scuffs marks and light scratches. Still presents extremely well, in fact could easily be shown. Grade: 5.8 Estimate: $400 - 500
