Good. There is a horseshoe fracture at the front top of about 11 mm across and about 6 mm down on each side. The top has a couple of chips that have been partially filled or mostly just coloured over, at the back about 11 x 5 mm (and the inside of this chip being around 7 x 4 mm. At the front around the top of the horseshoe fracture around 20 mm of the top of the lip and about 5 mm down in one spot. Main body of the bottle is really good with just some discolouration in places. Front base edge has an 11 x 7 mm chip that comes up the front about 3 mm. A couple of other marks at the base look to be from manufacture. This is the quite spectacular bright green variety and well worth getting properly cleaned up as it will be a beauty. Grade: 6.8 Estimate: $300 - 400
