Repaired. (0). The tap test tells the tale. This has an inconsistent "ring" to it when tapped. Most importantly, you can see inside these with the wide neck. Internally there are four or five obvious sections that have been restored! A great job which is not obvious externally. Deep chip to right rear base edge, probably left there to make you think this wasn't restored! Crack up from this. Another flake or two to base edge. A great item worthy of any display, just keep in mind that this is restored professionally! Estimate: $200-300
