Photographs and condition
Use sharp, unfiltered images of front and back labels, foil, closure, fill level, bottle base, case and accessories. Photograph the whole item before isolating labels or marks.
Record fill level, foil, closure, labels, glass and original case. Do not alter the surface, label or packaging for a better-looking photo.
