Excellent. Little mark to front is a pinprick type mark to the glaze from making. The outer right rim has a rough nibbled section over 12 mm, whilst I thought this was an impact, some of this is actually raised, so it is a making mark akin to a kiln kiss. A few tiny glaze nicks to the bottom of the flange. Some minor discolouration in places underneath. A few fine scratches to the face. Great deep colour, this is a nice match for the white example in this auction. No base on this one. Grade: 8.3 Estimate: $500 - 600
