Fair. (5.4). Spout is tightly in place so has not been removed to check the lip. The heavy base has a lot of bruises and chips all the way around. The upper body and shoulder has at least half a dozen round bruises up to about 15 mm across. There are two or three fine ones in the lower part of the print as well. The glass straw inside is loose and as we have said the top is tightly on so this will rattle around if it has to be posted, I doubt it will effect the syphon but the straw itself will likely break up. . Estimate: $20-40
