Excellent. (8). Here's the thing about the condition of this one, there are faults everywhere! But there is a big gouge in the front right top, from making. A kiln kiss to the back lip. Too much salt giving a dull and then burnt patch over the shoulder. The potters stamp has been partly applied a second time. There is an actual chip at the back base in a Crown shape over 18 x up to 5 mm. From this is a very fine hairline that runs about 25 mm just above the base edge. Overall just a wonderful, crude, early piece of pottery. And the English potters were supposed to be so much better at the time! Estimate: $300-600
