One tiny ding on the side..... a couple of black dots that could be tarnish that I was unable to remove. I say tarnish as this bowl has only held porcelain chinese carpet bowls for over 30 years. Prior it was used as a floral centerpiece. It is an elegant and yet simple design that will go with any decor. ********************************************************************* IMPORTANT: I WILL OUT OF TOWN ALL OF THANKSGIVING WEEK.
