Good. (6.6). Lip chip has been filled. Interestingly the obvious spot you'd suspect - the big dip on the left side - seems to be original. The chip itself looks more like it is down the front top and is about 19 x 18 mm. Glazed over "chip" at the bottom edge of the right top. Little bit of rust stain and the like around. A very oddly shaped and heavy bottle. Doesn't look like the potter was having a great day, see also the crossed over pottery stamps on the back. This is actually a pretty decent example of a rare ginger beer. (Votava Collection). Estimate: $300-400
