Good. Really two distinct parts to the grading of this. On one hand it is broken as the handle is missing, however at least the handle is at the back and the rest of the demijohn is in Excellent or Near Mint condition. There are a handful of flakes under the base and some scratches on the surface of the jar. From manufacture the glaze is speckly and there are also a couple of kiln kisses to the front. Great looking piece that displays well as is or you could get the handle rebuilt or replaced. Grade: 6.65 Estimate: $100 - 150
