Overview
Martell EXTRA: identification and appraisal guide
Leave Martell EXTRA unchanged and capture the complete Cognac bottle or decanter before moving closer to labels, marks or areas of wear. Give the maker or producer name Martell the first readable close-up after the complete-item image.
Identification details
- Maker: Martell
- Product name: Martell EXTRA
- Category: Cognac or brandy
- Marks and details to photograph: the brand, expression or grade, bottle size, bottle engraving and edition markings
Use the complete view to connect Martell EXTRA with the maker or producer name Martell. Add the box, certificate or receipt only when it belongs to the same item.
Photographs and condition
Use even light to photograph front and back labels, closure or stopper, fill level, bottle base, engraving, box and accessories. Avoid filters that could change colour or surface appearance.
Capture the current condition of fill level, seal, stopper, labels, bottle or decanter and presentation box. State which accessories are present and which cannot be located.
Storage, accessories and handover
After taking the photos, keep the Cognac upright and stable, protected from sunlight and temperature changes. Retain the seal, stopper, cork, closure and label as found.
To keep accessories matched, keep the stopper, box, booklet and purchase documents with the bottle or decanter they accompany.
