Excellent. This has had a superb polish job where the whittling and mould marks that have been left untouched make it quite difficult to see that this bottle has in fact been polished. There is a little flake on the top of the back lip measuring 3 x 1 mm and a fraction of a mm deep. A scuff mark on the middle of one of the back edges is 21 mm long and less than 1 mm across. Some fine scratches and remnants of pitting can be seen mainly on the back and there are a couple of largely untouched marks near the back base just on the surface of the glass. Beautiful colour and scarce mid to large size cobalt blue chemist. (This is the exact same bottle that we sold all the way back in Auction 3 for $417.00). Grade: 8.2 Estimate: $400 - 450
