This Van Briggle is in very good condition. Very well taken care of and it is signed on bottom. It has been used before of course, and it is real Van Briggle. One hundred percent real! No cracks, hairlines, or chips! Has some tiny stains on few spots. I did not want to mess with it because i do not think it is that important. Overall this Van Briggle is in great condition!
