Very Good. Couple of tiny inner lip nicks. A bit of light haze internally, this has been oiled at some stage. 5 x 4 mm flake under heel has a small sliver from it as well. 3 x 2 mm nibbled flake to left base edge. The seam around the base edge has nibbles and wear. A few surface nicks. Scuffs and scratches scattered around, heaviest around the shoulder. A few little pitted scratches, although not overly deep. Nice embossing has some high point crate wear, although the trade mark is well detailed with not many marks. A nice, early aqua example, we have never sold this variety before.
