Turned Ale Bowl with original paint.

It has an exceptional shape, original paint, writing on the exterior top and a 1889 date.  The top diameter is 4 1/2 inches, the bottom diameter is 5 inches.  It is 4 1/2 inches high. 

On one side is a crack that extends downward from the top 3 1/8 inches and it has an old repair.  The opposite side has a crack and it extends downward from the top 2 5/8 inches.  I can't read the writing or the letters, but the date is 1889. 

Colors are Salmon with writing in yellow, a band of black, salmon with a sponged design, a narrow black band, and a salmon base.  All very nicely oxidized.
