Good. There is a large lip chip measuring 19 x 6 mm and 3 mm deep at its most extreme. A flat, flake type chip under the base that is 17 x 13 mm and just over 1 mm deep at the edge. Both of these chips had amateurish repairs in them that have been removed. There is also a small under base edge chip measuring 6 x 3 mm and 1 mm deep, and another glaze flake at the base. There is a small horseshoe hairline at the base under Eva. Some spots of stained crazing and a couple of surface scuffs and marks. Generally a good looking example of a rare pratt jar that is well worthy of professional restoration. Grade: 6.2 Estimate: $250 - 300
