Very Good. Difficult to give you an accurate grade, to look at this rare Demijohn it appears perfect. Under the base, however, is a hole - 24 x 15 mm at its widest and from this is a hairline around in a loop that also has two other lines from it. As far as display or on the shelf goes there are really only light scuffs and marks to be seen. So it really depends how you judge that - it is a great looking piece, it is rare, there is damage but it is all hidden from view. Grade: 7 Estimate: $60 - 100
