Condition:  Generally in excellent condition.  Lid is perfect and free of any chips or hairlines, only age appropriate crazing as visible in pics above.  Bowl is excellent with only the one very faint hairline that is only 1-1/2" long right at the top rim on one side only.  No chips or other damage of any kind other than crazing as indicated above.  For a piece of china over a century and a quarter old, these minor flaws are perfectly acceptable.  It is a beautiful piece and quite large!
