Very Good. Hard to judge early glass like this. The lip has chips of 12 x 6 and 12 x 4 mm and other small marks but the lip is also crudely sheared and left with a sharp finish from manufacture. On one side near the shoulder is a small impact mark with a star fracture which in total covers about 20 x 10 mm. Scratches, scuffs and wear around the surface. Loads of inclusions and swirls through the bottle. A wonderful piece of early glass. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $200 - 250
