There is typical glaze imperfection around the bottom edge of the water pot next to the unglazed base. The interior of the water pot has a white crackle glaze which has probably been cleaned up inside around the shoulder as remnants of a black ink which can only be seen when looking side on, otherwise in good condition, with no restoration, chips or cracks
