Good. Polished. Some lip work has been done on shallow flakes by the look of it. Heavily pitted around base edge with plenty of impact flakes and the like. Remains of fisheyes and impacts to the body. Embossing is rounded. There is a LOT of embossing on this bottle, it is obvious it had a lot of wear prior to the polish, with remains of nicks, nibbles and wear across most of the embossing, although the swan is quite good. A shiny example, actually looks quite good after the polish. Grade: 6.2 Estimate: $75 - 100
