Repaired. (N/A). This has had a superb repair, I think? I am still not 100% certain, but am going with my gut feel in saying that it is repaired. If it is, it is through the lower part of the bulge below the crown. I think this part has been painted, but they have matched the colour that well that I really can't be certain. It just has a slightly different feel? Anyway, rest of the bottle is great and this is a great looking example regardless of the potential repair. Making split type mark to the rear lip crown. Minor making split to mid neck. A bit of rust to the shoulder and base edge. Rare bottle. Estimate: $300-500
