Poor. (N/A). Well the condition is Poor but also remarkable. The whole thing, pot and lid have been broken into pieces and there are heavy iron staples drilled into the pottery to hold it back together. The repair itself looks very early and is a wonderful example of this sort of work. There is a freshish looking chip to one edge but there are chips, filled chips, lots of wear from use, chips on the handles, cracks and more. But I still can't get over that this must have been a beloved piece to go to trouble they have to put it back together. Estimate: $30-60
