Excellent. (8). 5 x 5 mm very shallow flake to upper front right ground lip. A few other similar, smaller flakes around the ground lip. 4 mm fracture from lip on right side down to the lid seat, very hard to see, not seen at all with lid in place. A little fine wear to the upper part of the outer lip. Some usage wear under the base. Some scuffs around the shoulder, these are quite minor. Minor scuff near left base edge. Embossing is downright amazing! The roll lip variation of this jar is a rare thing, however we have sold a few of those. This style is even rarer, the first we have ever sold! Fantastic item which would grace the best of jar collections with the sugar cane on the sides! Lid has a chip to the lower rim and some other marks. Grading is for jar only.. Estimate: $500-750
