Smallest with rough top edges with chips and glaze gaps. Armorial example with one handle restored with yellowing. Largest with one handle restored with yellowing and staining to the interior. Under UV, both of the latter two almost completely fluoresce to the exterior, but with little fluorescence to interior. The smaller fluoresces in the area of the handle and corresponding areas surrounding it, including rim and interior.
