Very Good. Couple of tiny nicks to the lip. The outer top has wear to the glaze from the handle. The original wire handle is rusty. Some spots of grime to be found. Pottery blow out to rear shoulder. Shallow 15 x 8 mm flake to right base edge. Some spots of discolouration. Some glaze wear, a few scratches. The original blue glazed hexagonal stopper is a superb piece in its own right.
