Hairline around front and right base is a bit discoloured, this is pretty much just crazing but due to the discolouration stands out a little. Some scratches and minor spots of wear. An unusual jar with the clamp grooves to lip in this size and registered date on it! 2. Very Good. This still has the original lid in place. Tiny flake to outer lip edge. Thin potters pull under base edge. Some scratches and spots of wear to the lumpy parts. Crudely made. A lovely and early piece of Australian found pottery. 3. Very Good. Chunky dirt still inside. Large chip like mark to rear lower body with dirt inside. 27 x 12 mm, this is a making mark. Two small flakes to base edge and a glazed over dint as well. Glaze drip to left front.
