Very Good. Quite dull from contents residue staining. The outer surface may be a little dull. Some scratches. Flake under base alongside the polished pontil, this would be from making. Label is stained. There is some tearing to the right, the torn piece is still in place though. The stopper has a surface crack and some flakes to the lower part that goes inside the neck. The upper part has a chip to it. Interesting and quite early looking bottle.
