Very Good. (7.9). Small kiln kiss to the edge of the lip. Crazing through the lower body. Base edge has numerous chips with the biggest being about 9 x 9 mm. Beautiful grey glaze with browns and tans throughout. And what a brilliant shape, crude with a wide shoulder and a narrow little top. This one probably was made by an actual Convict under the tutelage of one of the early Sydney potters. Estimate: $250-500
