Excellent. What a stunning piece of stoneware. There are really only some minor marks to the surface, such as a tiny flake to the little breather hole at the top. A few makers marks under the base where it has come off the potters wheel. Amazingly detailed decoration. Beautiful item. Grade: 8.9 Estimate: $200 - 250
