Very Good. Nice example but very crudely made. There is a 7 x 3 mm chip just through the thickness of the glaze one the back left lip. There are another 3 or 4 very shallow marks around the lip and top. The shoulder has a few little flakes and scratches as well. On the front to the left shoulder and part of the print are places where the glaze has missed during manufacture. There is a similar glaze miss to the front near the base. Around the base, partly covering the potters stamp are some crude dint marks from manufacture. Scarce and nice crude bottle. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $150 - 200
