Excellent. Some light inner stain, looks to be a water stain with some rust marks as well. Some scuffs and scratches externally. A superb piece of glass, these flint glass pieces are extremely hard to find, extremely early and sought after, this is the first time we have seen a wide necked version that would appear to have been utilised for pickles or chutney of some sort! Superb piece! Grade: 8 Estimate: $75 - 100
