Very Good. (7.5). 5 x 3 mm glaze scrape on the back right lip. Some other slight wear on the lip. Outer right top has two kiln kiss type glaze misses but then this is also getting some wear and rubbing from the wire handle. Body is a bit scuffy and scratched. Dirt and grime. Certainly would clean up more. Estimate: $50-100
