Fair. (5.8). The overglaze print has obviously been largely lost at some stage and reinvigorated in modern times. The base shows just faint outlines of the print in places. Some of the original gold leaf is still visible on the base and lid. Still a worthy piece as such an unusual pot lid. Little spiderweb hairline inside the lid. Some scuffs and scratches. A darker scratch over the edge of the base at one end. A really unusual lid and base.. Estimate: $100-150
