Length including handle and spout abou 9".
Width about 5 1/4".

Condition: The base has some age cracks on the bottom, several run up the side a little ways. There is some overall wear including wear or chips to the tip of the spout, chips on the top rim, some wear to the glaze on the base of the lid.
