1. Excellent. Some spots of grime. The coloured backing is some form of felt. Gold leaf design has some minor wear in places. Some dust and grime. We do not know anything about who made this, when or where, the vendor suggested it was French. 2. Very Good. I cannot decipher the potters mark, it is something like Tu Goan Studios or Tiguan Studios? Small glaze flake to the handle. A few other small stained spots to the handle. Some discolouration. Crazed throughout, there is some discolouration through this crazing in places. An interesting mug that looks to have a bit of age to it. The Tui is a New Zealand bird, and Kia Ora refers to a New Zealand greeting. (7.7). Grade: N/A Estimate: $40 - 60
