Distinguishing Characteristics - Most Interesting About The Piece: This is a truly nice piece which is uncommon and relatively difficult to come by. The colors are rich, fresh and vivid and it would display very well in your collection.
Condition: The piece is in excellent condition with no cracks, hairlines, or repairs. The piece has signs of general crazing to the glaze throughout the surface. Upon careful examination we were not able to identify signs of crazing to the glaze, which is rather uncommon for such an old piece of pottery. The piece is lightly soiled and would probably benefit from a good cleaning, but we leave that to the new owner. The piece is great looking and would display nicely. A great and rather uncommon piece to add to your collection. Please see photos for additional condition information.
