Very Good. Front right upper lip has a chip over about 20 mm, there are a few other chips and flakes around this ground lip area, which is common of this sort of jar where the glass lid contact the glass jar. These are not obvious with the lid in place. There is a little bit of grime on the inner neck and some inner base dirt. There is a short scratch between the SS at the bottom front. A few scuffs and scratches down the right side and to the rear upper body. Some minor usage wear under the base. This is a superb piece of glass from one of the early South Australian glass manufacturers, there are lovely swirls all through the glass. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $100 - 150
