Was orginally very happy with the rustic and handmade quirky look..looks well made and interesting also the glaze is nice ..I would call the glaze a fresh light green as the feast baker I got does not have blue hues of duck egg color as I know it. I am extremely pleased this is able to fit in my biggish bench top oven oven..any bigger would have been too big ..this is perfect size. One of the best features that I love it the side handles for ease getting in and out of the oven. I will update my review once I have cooked it with more info :-) UPDATE first use and I heard a loud pop sound and on emptying found it was all crazed and crackle looking :-( Sadly disappointed ..my old baking dishes are still great after years of using to do this first use was a shock… was it defective ..or was there perhaps an unnoticed tiny crack on arrival that once it had spent time in the oven at 160 degrees it kinda burst with a loud pop noise .. ..the plus side is no one was hurt and no damage to the oven
