Poor. Whilst this example is intact with no chips or cracks, it has been heavily burnt and is subsequently heavily misshapen. The front down the right side is pushed in considerably and has surface bubbles and crazing from where the glass has melted. There are pits, scratches and fisheyes throughout otehrwise and the bottle is stained throughout too. Oiled internally. Crate wear. This is purely a gap filler, it is an extremely rare and sought after bottle and so may well be the only chance many of us will get to acquire one for the collection. Grade: 2 Estimate: $50 - 75
