*The Naples mark was copied by many factories including it successors Capodimonte and Doccia. I do not have the knowledge in continental porcelain to confirm whether this is Naples, its successors or any other factory. It is, however, a very good quality piece.

It has been cleanly broken in two and has had a masterpiece stapling job done on it. There is no loss to the paste and no overpainting

There is wear to the enamels and gilding, a shallow flake to the glaze on the handle and miniscule frit on the rim.

Apart from some minor wear it is in very good condition with no frits, chips or cracks.

There is a faint hairline. It is in otherwise good condition.

There is wear to the glaze on high points and a couple of really miniscule frits to the spout. It is in good condition with no chips or cracks.

There are chips to the rim and top with further cracks to top.

It has been broken in 3 pieces and restuck/ rivetted.

There is a large piece missing from the neck, a shell chip and the lid is damaged. I think this may be quite a rare item.

There is some wear to the rim gilding. It is in very good condition.
