The condition is very fine for the age, with a thin nyu crack at the mouth-edge part, abrasion at the ears for use, and a few pinholes and kamakizu (kiln-crack) as usual. Please see pictures carefully, feel the great patina from its 'keshiki' (landscape of pottery) and understand its scarcity value if you are really looking for REAL ...
