Very Good. What a superb piece, the whole decanter is shaped like a thistle, as is the original stopper. The stopper has some minor nicks and the odd scratch to be found. The decanter small fine bruise to the inner lip, a couple of other little flakes to the lip edge from where the glass stopper makes contact. The number 17 is scratched into the front neck. Some surface grime which looks like it will wash off easily. A few scuffed scratches to the rear. Little impact mark to rear upper body. Chip to bottom of spigot over about 20 mm. Some body scratches and the odd little impact flake and the like. Plenty of usage wear under the base. A stunning piece, in this shape it is quite unique! Grade: 7.4 Estimate: $300 - 400
