Excellent. Does not look excellent at first due to the lip chip, however the lip chip is not a chip at all. This is a natural fold in the glass from making that has caused a dip, with a sharp seam along the dip which is slightly nibbled. There is a very small flake to inner lip in this dip. Some fine inner dust that looks like it will wash out. Small sliver flake to base edge. Couple of small bubbles at the surface. Some light scratches. A few tiny fisheyes, hardly any at all. Lovely whittled glass, this is actually a prime example. Grade: 8.1 Estimate: $50 - 75
