Stoneware lid with green spot
Question:
Hi Al, I have a 2g lid that is in excellent condition. No chips or cracks and nice color. On the edge though, there is a tiny pit that is surrounded by the darkish green spot that is visible in the picture. I’ve tried cleaning it with paint thinner and scrubbing pads, but I believe this is under the glaze as nothing appears to be removing it. Can you tell me what might have caused this (possibly something in the manufacturing) and other possible ways to clean it. I heard of some people using a peroxide solution. Can you also give me an estimate on its value. Thanks, Chris
