Very Good. Polished. Extensive very finely pitted wear to inner chamber, possible to inner body as well, looks like this may be some light haze instead though. A few open bubbles internally. Some pitted sections externally, little flakes and the like. Remains of scratches and some fisheyes and impacts. Embossing is quite good still, especially the trade mark. A lovely little bottle.
