It does not appear to encroach on the side of the jar. There is a small horseshoe crack near this on the bottom edge. Under the base is a shallow flake, 5 x 2 mm. Does have crazing with a fine glaze hairline at the bottom of the neck. Discoloured spotty type glaze around the lip. Some scratches and marks over the main part of the jar.
