Very Good. Small spot of discoloured wear through the glaze to front left lip edge. Tiny glaze flake to rear lip edge amongst some surface rust. Short dark scratch to right upper body. Couple of little sliver type flakes to base edge which are possibly potters pulls. Couple of little spots of rust stain. A few scratches. Nice example, the red word poison is offset to the left on this one making it rather unique. This is from the late Roy Millar collection. Grade: 7.7 Estimate: $100 - 150
