There is some superficial cracking (webbing?) on the top of the inner pot, they don't go throughout the pot and might be the way its supposed to be, please see photo. There are no cracks or chips. Inside pot is a little dirty as this is a used pot, but it has been cleaned. The Outer pot is more of a blue/purple color and the inner pot is more of a yellow/green color. There is some of the blue pain that has come off of the bottom edge of the pot, you can see this, but could be painted, again, please see photo of this. Let me know if you have any questions and if you need any additional pictures.
