Quite crude, making marks and fingerprints throughout. (8.1). 2. Excellent. This still has some of the original contents, the original cork and wire. Some grime around the cork and wire. Couple of glaze nicks to upper lip. Shoulder has a little wear and a couple of minor flakes. Kiln kiss to left shoulder. A few glaze nicks to the body. Some scratches and minor marks.
