Excellent. As is often the case with these washed overglaze pink glaze lids, the pink has faded somewhat, but is still distinctly pink. Some tight crazing which may be slightly discoloured in places. Couple of glaze scratches. A lovely looking lid, Elliott Bros in Australia were agents for Thornton's with their own lids in a similar style. This UK version is a lovely piece which does not come with a base. Grade: 8.2 Estimate: $50 - 75
