This is one of the pieces that seldom turn up for sale. This one is VNM + . I'll start with the extra's in this great chunk of glass . Probably 1903-1910. There are small chunks of brick, many small bubbles some up to 1/4 inch. An olive amber trail ( 2 & 1/2 inches ) starting from a chunk of snot in the neck, this gives an amber haze in the saddle. The outer surface has a wrinkled texture, While my picture is showing bluish, It is a rich true aqua .

Condition . There are a few ( 3-4 ) pencil tip tic's . There is one 1/8th by say 1/16th bite on the corner of the saddle ( Paper thin ) . There is a doubble crossed bubble open on the upper crest of the skirt. It is paper thin . Inside, ( looking down the base ) a 7/16ths line can be seen between two of the ribs, It is in the center of the glass and doesn't go to the inside or outside surface . It is hard to see and can only be attributed to a temperature difference in cooling.. I have several pictures, please email and I will send them . I believe this is one of those pieces that won't come around for many years so if you are looking for one that won't need replacing . This one is it. $700 + shipping . Pete
