Very Good. Monstrous! NO POST, pick up only, or courier at cost, which won't be cheap. Lid is gigantic and heavy alone, it has grime and hairlines scattered around, relatively small flake under the rim. The body is great really. One very small base edge flake. Some fine hairlines and a few stains, maybe the odd scratch or two. This still has the original float in place to stop the inflow through the hole near the top when it is full, and the original outlet tap from the base hole, even has some spare pieces of hose internally. An amazing piece of pottery, this will be well worth your while to come for a drive to pick it up from us! Grade: 7.7 Estimate: $100 - 150
