Very Good. But there is a curved crack on the back shoulder and upper back. In total about 300 mm in tight oval shape. A couple of very fine extra hairlines off one end of this crack (45 & 35 mm). The back lip has a shallow 19 x 8 mm chip. The front lip has two glaze chips of 13 x 4 mm and 8 x 3 mm. There are a couple of other small marks at the lip. Only minor marks anywhere else. The side stamp is blurry with a shadow effect. The front stamp is strong. This Demijohn displays beautifully, a very rare item. Grade: 7 Estimate: $$600.00 - $800.00
