Fair. (5). No major damage that I can see. However, this is very heavily worn throughout! This heavily pitted wear is also discoloured. There are fisheyes and a few impact surface flakes that I can see as well. A few pitted scratches can be seen amongst the wear. An extremely rare bottle, we sold one back in Auction 45 for $14,500. This is only the second example sold with none more likely to appear in the near future, a prime candidate without any cracks or chips for a careful polish in order to improve the appearance, and therefore value. Estimate: $1000-1500.
Reserve: $1000.
