appreciate it might seem pedantic, but think we ought to say whether we're speaking imperial or metric - although I guess these numbers were cms.

Thanks Glen,had a look on the intoe and have seen some without decoration on the inside where as mine has,i think called a head dress?, has that got something to do with lidded and unlidded

[Glen]

The interior design is indeed known as Headdress. It can be found on some bowls and some stemmed sugars. Nothing to do with the lids :-)
