Good. (6.6). Polished. Front lip has been chipped and it is heavily ground down on one side. Chip looks to have been about 13 x 4 mm but where it has been sanded has extended either side and over the outer edge. The inner neck has lots of scratches from cleaning. A deep scuff/gouge in the plain panel has also been worked at and you can see the heavy scratches over the top and above and below this original mark. Some other deep scuffs around the shoulder and upper body. Bottle still looks quite nice and needs some better finishing done to some of the attempted improvements! Estimate: $200-400
