Very Good. A little fine wear with a small glaze flake or two around the rim. Some very fine glaze flakes around the base region, only just through the thickness of the glaze. Some dark stain to the upper pot on one side. A bit of rusty stain amongst some crazing under the base. These family ointment pots are very early. This is from the James A. Lerk collection.
