Very Good (7.2). A few glaze flake around the lip, only just through the glaze thickness though. Couple of spots of wear to outer lip. Some wear around the sharp shoulder edge. Flake to rear base edge, smallish chip to base edge under potters stamp. Another small base edge flake or two. Scrape through glaze near front base edge. Another small scrape to mid right. Some little glaze nicks and flakes scattered around. Scratches and scuff marks. Discoloured, heaviest to the lower rear but is scattered around much of the bottle. Little glaze flake to the first E of Federal. Solid enough example. EST: $20 - 30
