Polished. 10 x 12 mm section of odd pitted wear to lower front left neck. Pitted scratch or two. Actually may have been more acid dipped than polished? Little nibbled scratch to base edge. A few impact marks. 4. VG. Some hazy stain throughout. 3 x 3 mm bruise from an inclusion to the lower right body. Some scuffs and scratches. A few fisheyes to be found. A lovely bottle in this lighter colour which is not as often seen as the usual darker blue colourations. 5. VG. Polished. Remains of some etching. Little nick to outer right lip. Remains of a few scratches and scuffs. Embossing is flat, but I have seen unpolished examples with flat embossing as well. Nice enough example. 6. VG. Polished. Upper lip is smooth, I wonder if some work has been done around here and the upper neck to remove a flake or two? A few spots of deep pitted wear and some pitted scratches remain. Some little impact marks. Some scratches and scuffs. Nice, crisp embossing, couple o little nibbled marks to a few letters. Lovely looking bottle.. Estimate: $150-250
