Good. Looks like a few glaze flakes to the upper lip have been touched up, these were minor by the look of it. Couple of shallow glaze flakes to shoulder edge look to have been recoloured to blend them in. 22 x 10 mm under base flake on right side. Nibbled 9 x 9 mm flake chip to left base edge could be a manufacturing mark. Circular shaped fracture or split under the middle base which would be from making. A bit of glaze wear and discolouration. The most amazing mottled glaze to the neck, I have never seen one as crude as this. Grade: 6.6 Estimate: $20 - 30
