1. Fair. Looks great, but has a series of cracks horizontally and vertically around the lower neck. The stopper also has cracks. Some dirt and grime. There is no glass over the label any more. The label has been redone in modern times although a lot of the gold looks original. Looks quite nice on the shelf. 2. Excellent. The stopper is firmly stuck in place. There is a shallow 3 x 2 mm flake on the outer lip near a shallow open bubble, this could well be an open bubble as well. The right lower neck has a fine surface hairline over about 7 mm. A couple of possible short fractures on the left lower neck that are very hard to see. The label has deteriorated on the left side. There is some fading and flaking to be found as well.
