Good. This has never been cleaned, it still has a lot of dirt and stain over it. 8 x 5 mm chip out of rear body, there is some extensive smoky looking stain in this area and several pinpricks to the glaze in this rear region. It may have been caused by excessive heat? On the very right hand end of the thistle is an inclusion in the pottery that looks to have a fine hairline coming from it over about 40 mm. Plenty of stain and rust stain to the front of this as well. This needs a good and extensive clean, but will come up a grade or two higher afterwards. A lovely and rare piece. Grade: 6.3 Estimate: $150 - 200
