There is an area of chipping to the rim of the spout, there is a small firing crack at the join of the spout to the neck. The finial is detached but present, one of the feet has been broken off in half and re-glued fairly obviously, glue residue still visible. Generally a bit scuffed and scratched and would benefit from a clean.
