Excellent. What a gorgeous looking little jar. There is a little bit of haze inside but largely this seems to just be some fine dirt on the surface that still needs cleaning. Down from the front top is what at first glance appears to be a crack but is actually just a crease in the glass from making down the inner neck. A couple of little fleabites on the inner lip and some minor marks elsewhere. Couple of little flakes on the external thread. Great example, lovely colour and quite a rare little jar. Grade: 8.55 Estimate: $40 - 60
