Near Mint. (9.4). Has an unmarked wooden stopper in place. Shoulder and upper body on one side has a couple of gouged scrape marks, in the tan area this is glaze over mostly, in the white area it is more of an unglazed scrape mark. Some tiny spots of wear to the shoulder edge. A little bit of surface grime which should clean off. Couple of small potters pulls under the heel. Barely even a scratch. This is a prime example with the only marks being from manufacture. Very rare too, the first we have sold. Don't miss this opportunity. Estimate: $1500-2000
