Very Good. A couple of tiny glaze flakes around the spout area. Some minor gilt wear to the rim. Tiny nick to point of upper handle, another to lower handle near body. Base edge at rear has a flake type mark, looks like this small spot has been filled, or maybe it is just an odd potting mark? Directly below the handle along the base edge is a 30 mm discoloured hairline, some on the side, some under the base. A few little scratches to the wonderful shiny glaze. Probably the most noticeable thing about this jug is the extensive discoloured crazing throughout. We have not seen this lovely early jug before. Grade: 7.4 Estimate: $600 - 700
