Excellent. (8.3). A few little nicks to the sharp lip edge. The largest nibbled spot is only about 3 x 2 mm and very shallow, the other couple of marks are tiny nicks. Mid inner body has a band of very fine dirt that looks like it will soak out. Tiny spot of wear to base edge. Some fine usage wear under the base. Some minor scratches and the odd little scuff mark. One or two tiny nicks to the embossing. Stunning example of this superb bottle, an all time classic which is a must have for many collectors.. Estimate: $3000-3500
