Condition — please read

A visible hairline crack runs vertically from the upper rim through part of the painted grapevine decoration. There is also extensive fine glaze crazing and age-related wear. These faults are reflected in the item's condition and must be considered before purchase. We recommend use as a decorative display piece rather than assuming it is watertight.

Please examine the close-up photographs of the rim, glaze and 1909 impressed base mark.
