Excellent. These always have lip chip somewhere - except this one! A little upper lip wear where the stopper has rubbed. The wire is rusty and the clamp part is missing that would seal the stopper in place. Nibbled flakes to end of the stopper. Some dirt near the inner base will wash out. Little open bubble under base edge. These also often have quite a bit of crate wear, not so much this one! A few letters have some nibbles and wear, but most of the embossing is great. Scuffs and scratches, mostly around the shoulder region and again the base edge. There are some scratches scattered around the body. A few little impact marks. Better than standard example of this nice bottle. Grade: 8 Estimate: $150 - 200
