guises. Collectors around the world covet the full set, of which Lots 7 and 65 are some of the rarest, coming from small editions of 150.

No cracks detected. Under very close inspection, there is evidence of a few tiny dots of cosmetic retouching to the left eye. There is a slight imperfection to the glaze from the time of firing. A few tiny pinpoint chips to the underside of the rim. Light wear to the footrim. A well-kept, early example from this small edition.
