Each decanter shows signs of wear, particularly on the underside where chips and small losses are most noticeable. There are heavier scuffs and scratches from shelfwear, and some chips on the interior lids, but overall, they remain in stable condition. One decanter has the largest loss, approximately 0.625 inches in diameter to foot. One glass stopper is affixed to the bottle. The silver mounts also have scuffs and light patina. The accompanying case exhibits creasing, cracking, and minor leather losses due to handling. One silver lid with shallow dent to top and other example with light indentation to side of silver. The brass elements of case display verdigris and patina. Please note that a key is not included.
