CONDITION:Good to Very Good overall vintage condition. There's really no damage to the body or lid to speak of, less what appears ...to be a firing anomaly in the semi-transparent hand-painted glaze on the very front of the lid, where would be the top of the fish's head (forehead.) Other than this firing phenomena (which doesn't constitute damage) the ceramic piece is clean, with no hairline-cracks, unsightly edge flea-bites or ceramic loss. Very nice. Signed on the base 'ITALY N.'
