Excellent. On the top of the left side lip is a 10 x 2.5 mm area of wear through the glaze. At the front base is a very shallow 7 x 4 mm chip that looks like it might just be a clay pull when the bottle was removed from the potters wheel. A very minor rust patch on the back shoulder. Some fine scratches to the body. Great stamp and beautiful colouring to the top and shoulder. Wonderful example. Grade: 8.45 Estimate: $120 - 180
