Very Good. Tiny nick to rear lip. Band of wear through glaze to outer lip from where the wire handle would have rubbed on it over the years. There is no longer a wire handle on this example. Little flake to front left shoulder edge. Rear upper body and shoulder edge has what looks like flakes through the glaze, but is probably a glaze miss. Thin band of surface wear to glaze to upper body, another slightly deeper band of wear to sharp base edge, couple of flakes around here as well. Nibbled flake under left base. Little flake to glaze at front amongst stamp, again, may be a glaze miss. Grade: 7.7 Estimate: $100 - 150
