Both are Very Good. Unusual items. The multi-coloured one is lighter and gives the immediate impression of being a bit earlier than the tan one. Crazed throughout. Still dirty and grimy. Has had a thin band of leather around the edge but this is mostly gone just leaving a bit of stain. Glaze chip to the pouring lip and a bit of wear around. The tan one has a 50 mm crack across the spine. A bit dirty and grimy as well. Only minor marks anywhere else. Grade: N/A Estimate: $40 - 60
