Overall condition is very good.
The bowl is in good order, no signs of splitting, serious damage or repair. There does appear to be a slight 'seam' visible on the inside and out consistent with where the lip of the funnel meets the bowl. There is some light denting, and some light scratching and wear consistent with use. There is some wear to the decoration high points, but this is minor.
The funnel is in good order, no splitting, serious damage or repair. There are some slight signs of thinning around the lid, but these are only minor.
