Good. An amazing bottle! This bottle weighs over a kilogram, it is made of very thick glass and is extremely crude. Inner front lip has a 12 x 8 mm bruise. Has been oiled internally. Outer surface is hazy, there is some etched stain and actually quite a bit of pitting scattered around, but this blends in well with the crudeness of the bottle. Some deep scuff marks, pitted scratches and fisheyes scattered around. Potstone to rear has an associated 8 x 6 mm fracture. 6 x 3 mm bruise under base. This is certainly a unique piece. Grade: 6.7 Estimate: $100 - 150
