Excellent. (8.6). What a stunning item. Only the second of these we've seen and the other one is a lime green colour! The spout is very firmly attached and we have not removed it. Inside has some light contents stain (these were originally distributed as promotional items with perfume or the like in them). The metal spout still has its screw thread cap on the end. Very few if any marks outside, basically appears to be as made. Sensational piece.. Estimate: $3000-5000. Reserve: $2000.
