Excellent. (8.3). Tiny glaze nick to lower front lip. Has a discoloured look, but this is as made, I've found them like this myself. I believe this style was made at one of the smaller Melbourne potteries, possibly one of the Brunswick potters, but not sure there. A little rust to the base. Some crude dints and lumps, all from making. An unusual variety and a lovely example of such.. Estimate: $50-75
