The one bowl has 2 small superficial chips on the outer rim (hygienically still viable).

The pitcher is also unique in that it whistles a very distinctive audible sound as you pour it's contents out as well as when you pour hot sake into the bottle the nightingale on the top whistles as the steam from the sake makes its way out at the side of the bird.
The colours are all still vibrant.
