Sold individually from a group of like pots, and each one differs. Expect small rim chips and flakes, mineral crust and dried soil in the clay, and darkening where the pot sat wet. Several pots in the group show a shallow chip to the rim edge, and one or two carry a short flake running down from the rim. None of the pots have been washed or scrubbed. Drainage holes are open. The clay is unglazed throughout, so staining is absorbed rather than sitting on a surface, and it will not come out. These are working garden pots that were used, and they read that way.

Please review all photographs closely, as they form part of this description.
