This is a beautiful white pot with clear black transfer lettering is in great condition with no chips or cracks. The extraordinary ornate labeling makes it one of my favorites. This is a medium size at 4 3/4″ tall with a base diameter of 2 3/4″ and mouth opening of 1 3/4.”
Most pots have some level of crazing, may have spots of discoloration, light hairline cracks and minor chips and fleabites that should be considered patina, additions to character and do not detract from its display value. These are expected due to age, use and let’s not forget they were often buried for decades before being dug up and rescued.
