Good. Some time ago we sold one of these, this is another one of this fabulous Doulton Artware back bar dispenser, an amazing piece. One tiny glaze flake to outer lip. Front has a section repaired at the top, which is a piece glued back in over about 100 mm by 50 mm down. This was the original piece that was glued back in, looks like this was also in two pieces when it came out. A good repair that has been disguised well, whilst still showing the original extent of the damage, which is as it should be done in my mind. Highly shiny body glaze has a few glaze scratches and a pop or two from making. Tap hole has a flake chip to the left hand side. A superb item all round. This has a lid as well, the original lid I might add. The handle part from the blue section upwards is restored entirely. Grade: 6.3 Estimate: $2000 - 2500
