Very Good (7.4). Polished. Evidence of some hand preparation near the neck groove on the upper body on both sides. Inclusion in lip has no damage. Some nibbles and impacts around the base edge and heel. Really chunky embossing has some minor high point wear. Some scratches and the odd scuff mark remain, as do some fisheyes and other impact marks. Sticky tape residue around the lip. Stunning deep aqua colour, huge embossing, this is a very rare variety from this company. This would have been made at one of the lesser Melbourne Glassworks. This is the very same bottle that we sold in Auction 40. Estimate: $500-750
