A burst bubble on the edge between the embossed panels near the base, measures 6 x 4 mm and looks to have been there from manufacturing. There are a couple of small fisheyes under the base and some small ones to be found down the sides as well. Strong embossing shows very little wear. There are some scratches and scuff marks to the surface. Top show bottle. Grade: 7.7 Estimate: $1000 - 1500
