Excellent. By far the best we have seen, and that has not been too many, a rare bottle. The photograph may depict a mark in the lip that looks odd, this is a fold from making on the inner lip, by no means a crack. Some very, very light haze to inner neck. Lower rear neck has an inclusion that does have a small fracture from it, this is fine, small and from making, but this is the only reason why we have not graded this beauty even higher. Couple of little shallow flakes to the embossing, mostly this is superb. Shallow open bubble amongst the embossing. Some very light surface scratches, not many at all. Stunning piece, you never see these large ones for sale. Grade: 8.8 Estimate: $400 - 600
