Excellent. Around the upper lip are a few spots where there is glaze wear, the larger spot of this (over an area of about 6 x 5mm) has a glaze hairline running from it, this is very minor. Some light scratches to the blob, the shoulder has some light wear in places, there is a small flake from the front right shoulder. A small stained spot to the upper rear. There are some odd manufacturing marks to the lower right side above the potters stamp, these are from making and add to the crudity of this piece. There is another odd making mark under the left front base. Some light wear to body glaze, only minor. This is a great looking example of a nice South Australian ginger beer. Grade: 8.3 Estimate: $20 - 30
