Condition
The ceramic is sound. Some very minor scuffs and specks of surface dirt on the reverse and in the background. There is a faint surface scratch in the yellow slip at lower centre which is possibly original. There are two specks of sticky residue on the lower edge. This work is in overall very good condition.
