Very Good. (7). Some wear through the glaze around the lip. In fact, patches of wear through the glaze to the handle and the body as well. Some shallow chips, flakes and wear around the base edge. Right side of the medallion has a 10 x 47 mm piece missing, there is glaze on the edges of the remaining part though, so this occurred prior to this being glazed in making. It is an interesting medallion with a heart in it. Potters blow out to lower rear, couple of other smaller examples as well. Some scratches. No repairs on this beauty. A great item.. Estimate: $600-800
