1. Very Good. Shallow flake under right lip. Large horseshoe mark to rear neck down 30 mm and up about another 30 mm. Whilst this initially looks like damage, it is a making mark. It is within a fold in the glass and is actually a series of very small bubbles. Couple of other similar marks lower down on the rear body. Narrow streak to front below badge as well. Oiled internally. Some light scuffs and scratches. Lovely swirled colours to the glass, this is very rare in this colouration. 2. Excellent. A stunning bottle! Couple of tiny lip nicks. A bit of fine inner water staining. Some light scratches to be found. Quite hard to get in this colour, this example would be hard to beat. Grade: N/A Estimate: $50 - 70
