Very Good. (7.4). Not sure where this is from, the base marks do not look Australian. Regardless, I could not find any examples with my Google search anywhere, not just in Australia. This is a bit dirty and grimy, it should clean up a fair bit. However, there will probably still be a patch or two of haze. A little surface rust. Lower left has a little lump with a little flake next to it. Mark at shoulder directly up from this as well, likely making marks. A few little fisheyes and impact marks. Some scratches and the odd scuff mark. Tiny surface flake to lower front shoulder. The ceramic larbl print has some fading to the red part and some very minor discolouration to the white section. Very interesting bottle. Estimate: $100-200
