Fair. This is an interesting patent, it has the double sided glass stopper inside. Polished, extensively. Must have been pretty shocking prior, it is only marginally better now. Still remains dull throughout. Quite etched internally, remains of etching externally. Embossing is rounded and in some cases flattened. Thin amber streak through the glass from making. Grade: 5 Estimate: $40 - 50
