N/A. (N/A). 1. Good. Spout comes of freely to reveal a damage free lip. Very grimy, this will soak off. Some small nibbled flakes and impacts near base edge. 25 x 5 mm angled crack in this reagion too, this does not go all the way through the glass though. Nick or two to bulged shoulder. Heavy wear around this and again the base edge. Plenty of other wear, scuffs and scratches throughout. Inner stain. Unusual design, this is a European syphon. 2. VG. Spout is firmly stuck in place, we presume the lip is fine. Inner soda stain. Some usage wear to heel. Some grime which will clean off. One or two fine fisheyes. A few scratches and the odd minor scuff mark. Decent example of this unusual Sydney Loy Bros syphon variation. 3. VG. Spout is firmly stuck in place, we presume the lip is fine. Dusty, this will clean off. Inner soda stain. Some nibbled flakes around the ribs, including a few around the base edge. Usage wear to heel. Some nicks and flakes around the base edge and heel. Some scratches and scuffs. This is not a natural colour. 4. VG. Some stain inside. A chip on the back shoulder.

Little flake to front heel. A few fisheyes and minor marks. 6. Good. Spout comes off freely to reveal a damage free and clear lip.

The badge area isn't painted, nor the lip and neck. 7. EXC. Spout is firmly stuck in place, we presume the lip is fine. Grime, this will clean off. A little usage wear to the heel.
