Very Good. Two lip chips, chip to right of lip is 30 x 13 mm, one to the left is the same dimensions (although not small, in comparison to the size of this piece, these are not as bad as they initially sound). A few small flakes to outer lip at rear. Some rust around neck, probably remnants from some wire type handle that would have been around the neck. Scuffs and scratches can be found throughout. Base has plenty of usage wear. Some grime and haze inside and outside. Nibbled type impact mark at base heel on left hand seam. Rear base has a small shallow flake and impact type mark. A couple of shallow open bubbles. An unusual and rare bulk container of some sort which may have had any number of uses. Grade: 7 Estimate: $30 - 40
