Excellent. The labelled one has a shallow 15 x 8 mm chip near the base edge on the back label side. Some contents residue inside. Stoppers appear to be original, one sits down too far in the bottle but the wear inside the neck seems to match this. Beautiful whittled glass. The bottles here could well be earlier than stated but the date tends to fit in with the labels. Great pair of bottles. Grade: N/A Estimate: $100 - 150
