Excellent. (8.4). Crazing.

A few little kiln blowout marks or kisses but only really small, largest one is on the back neck amongst some "pimples" from making but is only 4 x 4 mm. There are some surface scratches and marks. Print is nice. If you want a top example of an iconic bottle then here it is. Reserve: $15000. Estimate: $15000-20000
