1. Good. Polished. Where the lip has been applied to the bottle the join appears as a crack right around the circumference at the widest part of the lip, on the inner surface about half way through. This is from making. Some stain remains. Small surface bubble or two. Some fisheyes and impact marks. Some small areas of pitted wear. Remains of some scuffs and scratches. Embossing is a bit rounded in places. 2. Very Good. Some making splits to inner lip. Tiny flake to upper lip. May have been oiled internally, some dust and grime. Couple of surface bubbles with dirt around the edges. Scattered scuffs and scratches giving this a slight dull appearance, and the odd little impact mark. Little flake to T of Thomas. Grade: N/A Estimate: $50 - 70
