This item was stored at my grandmother's house. It's likely from almost 30 years ago. There is a chip on the rim (photos 5 and 6). Other than that, I don't think there are any noticeable cracks or chips, but there are crazing and pinholes typical of pottery. As it is quite old, please purchase only if you understand this. There is no box. *Please purchase only if you are not concerned about it being a used item and stored at home. *Recycled materials are used for packing. Please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to smells or are very particular. *Depending on the packing size, the shipping method may be changed from Rakuraku Mercari Bin to Yu-Yu Mercari Bin. *I try to take photos in the same color as possible, but the color may be different from the actual item. Please forgive me.
