Condition

Overall in very good original condition. The lot has been examined under black light and show no evidence of prior restoration. A few minor air bubbles and glaze irregularities inherent in the making. A few very minor surface scratches consistent with age and gentle use. When viewed in person, the glaze presents with a rich indigo blue and the interior in a rich black glaze. A very dynamic piece of nice scale. ---
