Very Good. Small kiln kiss to upper rear lip. Wear around the sharp shoulder edge, there is a shallow 3 x 3 mm flake to front shoulder, around the the right of this is a larger 8 x 2 mm flake along the shoulder, a small making split to the shoulder at the right, then around to the right rear is a flake over about 10 x 6 mm. There are a few other minor glaze flakes amongst the shoulder wear. Similarly, around the sharp base edge and under the base there is some wear with a series of fine under base flakes, all of which are quite small. Small kiln kiss to the right shoulder as well. A bit of light wear and some minor scratches to the glaze throughout. Trade mark and the word ginger are very light and partly missing in places. Good, solid example of a great Tasmanian ginger beer. Grade: 7.8 Estimate: $200 - 250
