Excellent. Has some chips around the fine ground lip: At the back 10 x 3 mm; At the side in an uneven area totalling 13 x 3 mm. On the right hand seam line at the lip is a shallow flake measuring 9 x 6 x less than 1 mm. There are some light scratches and scuffs to the surface. Embossing is light but clear. Some crude surface bubbles to the left hand side. A few light spots of haze internally. Seems to be the scarcer variation with a single ring around the neck although we weren't even aware there was two variations of this jar until a few months ago. Grade: 8.1 Estimate: $200 - 300
