Small airbubble to front left base heel has a tiny pinprick to one edge, the bubble is a tad milky. Little fisheye and scuff mark near rear base edge. Some inner dirty type marks look like they will soak out, these are minor. Tiny 2 x 1 mm surface flake near rear base edge. A few fine scuffs and minor scratches. Embossing is good with no marks to be found. A rare bottle in this Moonee Valley glassworks variety and this see through green colour which is considerably different to the black one we sold in Auction 41, note the lip finish is different on this one as well. A great piece! Grade: 8.2 Estimate: $1500 - 2000
