Very Good. A few fine glaze flakes to upper lip on right side. Left upper lip has an impact mark with an associated small hairline. Some glaze wear to right shoulder, a bit of lighter wear around upper body and shoulder in other places. Some wear to spigot, some minor nicks to the inner edges of the holes. Two shallow flake chips to left base edge. Some fine glaze scratches scattered around. Pinprick marks throughout from making. Some spots of grime. Quite a hard to get variation from this Tasmanian company. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $$300.00 - $350.00
