Good. From the emptying hole is a 55 mm crack over the top. A 60 mm crack to the side and down to the lower section. Around from this on one of the shells is an impact mark with a 100 mm crack over the top. Down from the impact mark there is a 25 mm and 15 mm crack to the widest part of the rim. A lot of glaze wear and nibbling around this wide part and what looks like a hairline of about 110 mm. General light wear otherwise. Nice piece overall however. Unmarked but attributed to Lithgow Pottery by the owner. Grade: 6.5 Estimate: $80 - 120
