Good. (6). At the front left base edge there is a big bruise or chip covering 25 x 18 mm. You can see the top and edge of this fault fairly clearly but has been either filled or disguised with some resin or something soaked into it. Either way blends in quite well now. At the mid to lower back right are some scratches and amongst these are two tiny fractures of 3 and 2 mm each. A similar mark in the front neck of about 2 mm. Surface fisheye of about 3 x 3 mm to the right shoulder on the seam line. On the back left shoulder on the embossed fruit is a popped out bruise of 8 x 7 mm and coming from this to the upper back left is a slice chip covering around 20 x 6 mm. Embossing is good and this is still a good looking example of a desirable bottle. Estimate: $50-100
