Excellent. AMAZING! Firstly this is huge. Will need special arrangements for shipping if you require it. There is a large pontil scar to the base and it is very sharp in places! I mention this because while handling this piece for the description I managed to cut my finger quite badly on it! (Didn't get any blood on the item itself in case you were worried). General wear. Brush strokes from the decoration. Current owner has a line of elastic bandage around the neck to protect the top when the lid is in place. A truly astonishing piece. Grade: 8.5 Estimate: $1500 - 2000
