The smallest tankard has numerous chips to the rim. The larger blue and white tankard has a few very small chips to the rim. The remaining tankard has a chip to the foot rim, small chips/glaze loss to the handle, the rim appears largely ok, with some glaze thinning, a few firing faults apparent to the body.
