Excellent. There is actually still a bit of rust but will readily clean off with a bit of a soak. In some light you can see some tiny surface fractures in the glass. Only minor marks anywhere to the surface. Registered in 1905 these are a classic of the poison collecting world and this mid sapphire blue one of the most striking colours. Grade: 8.2 Estimate: $70 - 100
