Good. (6). A large 20 x 12 mm chip at the back top has been filled. The whole top has been overpainted but with a bit of scraping it is just this back chip that it is disguising. Body is just lightly scuffy. Some stain inside but hard to see. Magnificent deep Emerald Green colour, vastly different colour to one we had in the last auction. A beautiful bottle. (This example is the exact bottle as sold back in Auction 31, Lot 107). Estimate: $200-400
