Good. (6.4). Has a large curling crack that starts at mid front left goes to the back left before curling straight up, over the shoulder and then towards back towards the front runs across just near the neck and then curves down over the right shoulder petering out just below the shoulder at the mid right. The demijohn feels solid but this crack is quite obvious over large parts of it. Otherwise just some kiln kisses and making marks really. Hard to get in this handled cork top variety. Estimate: $50-100
