Excellent. 4 x 3 mm flake to only the glaze on the right hand face edge. All four corners on the side have small glaze flakes and wear, there are a couple of tiny nicks to the glaze across the top edge. A few small patches where the glaze has missed. A fantastic lid, one of three "Melbourne" lid variations in this auction. This comes with a matching base, the base has wear through the glaze across most of the edges, but is good otherwise. Grading is for lid only. Grade: 8.6 Estimate: $1250 - 1500
