Overall in good decorative order. The handle broken and restuck and probably a replacement, the lower terminal with old discoloured overpainting concealing the break, the upper break presumably concealed by the mount. There is a 6 cm. long associated hairline crack to the the body beneath the handle's lower terminal. Chipping to glaze at upper rim. The enamels are bright and fresh with very little wear.
