Both of these have been coloured and the entire lip dipped in some coating to smooth the edges. There is a horseshoe crack to rear lip which is 14 x 14 mm, this cannot be felt due to the aforementioned coating. Nibbles and flakes around the sharp shoulder edge. Little glaze flake to front shoulder. Deep scratch below S of Scone, another shallower scratch below this. Some other scratches to the glaze scattered around. Wire and stopper are not original.
