Condition Report

The scent dabber is broken (it sounds like it is inside the bottle). There are some slight cracks or imperfections to the stopper and some small surface chips to the reverse edge.


The bottle's body has some black scratches in areas, a small chip to one foot and some general wear to the underside of the feet. There is some general wear around the interior of the mouth of the bottle from general use and the stopper movement. The lines on the body look to be cosmetic rather than actual body cracks, but it is difficult to be 100% sure.
