Condition

Overall excellent condition consistent with age. With only very minor rubbing to the surface of the glaze. The black glaze interior with rubbing to the sides and base of the interior. The upper portions of the interior sides with white residue. The exterior white glaze with lines, visible in the catalogue illustration which are inherent in the design and not an issue of condition. A wonderful example of the cylinder form.
