Very Good. Surface has rust stain over most of it - a good soak in Rustbuster should soon remove it. Two or three very shallow chips around the base. Very crudely made with swirls and sunken parts around the shoulder. May not of contained ink by the way, this is something of a utility shape so could have been used for any number of purposes. Great piece of early stoneware. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $20 - 30
