1. Very Good. Glaze wear and some very minor nibbles around the lip. Some wear around the shoulder and generally on the body. A few scratches to be seen. Solid bottle. (7.7). 2. Good. The right half of the inner and top lip is chipped. There are some other small marks around the top and some crazing and fine glaze hairlines. Some light wear to the shoulder and base edge. Short scratch to right neck. Odd looking jagged fracture under the front base with glaze over the edges so from manufacture. Actually a pretty good looking ginger beer. (6.8). 3. Excellent. The top of the lip does have quite a few little glaze flakes and pinprick type marks. Down from the back shoulder is a shallow 8 x 8 mm chip. A few other little marks around the shoulder. A bit of gunk stuck on the front of the bottle (coming off just with a fingernail however). Good strong print, very nice looking stoneware ginger beer. (8.0). 4. Good. The whole lip is chewed and flaked with a couple of chips extending down the top a bit. A bit of wear and some flakes around the shoulder. The body has some scratches and discolouration. A couple of scratches are quite deep, and a spot or two of wear through the glaze as well. Around the base there are also a number of small chips and at the front is a 19 x 18 mm horseshoe fracture. OK shelf example. (6.2) Grade: N/A Estimate: $60 - 80
