The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
Overall in good decorative order with typical deep crazing to the glaze all over, which is more visible on the lower body on the cream ground. In further detail:
There is a 28 cm. long crack running horizontally around the globular body with four vertical branches extending from this crack, each branch circa 4-7 cm. long. There are some small glaze losses along these cracks; these cracks may have originally extended from a firing crack. There is a 1.2 cm wide triangular-shaped area of glaze flaking to the body and some minor typical glaze flakes to the upper rim.
