Excellent. There is though a 10 x 2 mm fracture just in the internal part of the glass at the bottom of the lip. There are some very small annealing fractures around here as well so could well be from making. A bit of dirt and dust still inside. Around the body are just a few light scratches. Very strong embossing. Note that this is the second one of these known (the first was sold in Auction 17). An extremely rare bottle in glorious condition. Grade: 8.2 Estimate: $600 - 800
