There is a restored damage to the foot, the restoration extending from just above the top of the mark and the interior footring and circling the foot with some retouching up to approximately the level of 5 o'clock to the mark before continuing up the side about 2 cm. There is a further dent to the footrim at 5 o'clock. There is an associate hairline crack on the base approximately 2.5 cm. There are a couple of minor specks on the interior. The glaze is quite successful, the actual colour is very bright somewhat brighter and more intense compared to the catalogue illustration.
