Good (6). The very top of the lip is all worn. Down the left top is a chipped area over nearly 20 x 16 mm. The front top has a 7 x 5 mm slice chip and there are another couple of smaller lip chips and flakes. The underside of the top also has numerous small chips and flakes all around. 70 mm hairline to the mid front starting just below the main stamp. Another finer 75 mm hairline from the right shoulder and down the back. Large 25 x 15 mm chip at the right base edge. Next to this near the front base is a U shaped fracture that is about 30 mm across and comes up around 17 mm into the bottle on both sides of the U. A couple of other base chips under the potters stamp. Some light stain. A kiln kiss and the like. But it is an ok example of a very scarce bottle. First one we have had through. Estimate: $100-150
