Good. Much of the glaze has flaked off the upper lip and the outer lip roll in this region. Series of lighter marks to front shoulder which I thought were glaze misses are actually glaze flakes. Possibly from the chemical that may have been in this demijohn. Close inspection over the body shows quite a number of these glaze flakes, they are small though. Down the front they appear as darker spots where they are a little discoloured. A little wear to the base edge. Some scratches. Spots of grime. An interesting demijohn, not one you see every day. Grade: 6.2 Estimate: $$50.00 - $75.00
