Good. (6.9). Polished. Has had a pretty heavy polish and the surfaces is smooth. Looks like the top has been heavily reshaped as it is very thin and almost cone shaped. Embossing is nice and strong. There are indents amongst the pictorial embossing that are clearly from making. Almost a bit of a mallet shape to the bottle from making as well. Nice colour and a good looking example of this scarce and desirable bottle.. Estimate: $700-1000
