Malt stain inside the jar. General scuffs and wear. Nicely formed big top with a ledge inside for the neatly fitting lid. Nice item and a good deal harder to get in this large size. 2. VG. A curved crack under the base just in from the outer edge and around half the base, looks like it would have been there from the time of making pretty much. Finer V shaped hairline under the base as well more towards the middle. A glaze miss or two on the lip. Some light marks. Print is hard to read but the potter has given themselves a task as they have printed it on a heavily textured surface. An interesting piece of advertising. 3. EXC. Dust and grime. Short firing crack in the mid left inner edge. Crazing. Cute little item. 4. EXC. Dust and grime. Some crazing. Minor marks. Lovely little piece. 5. VG.
