Condition
In generally good condition and notably free from any restoration. There is a short crack at the top right edge of the cover and a few very fine cracks elsewhere to the edge of the cover. There are also typical cracks to the base of the box, including one running around the lower edge of the base and a star crack to the interior, both of which have a truly minute loss of enamel associated with them, of little significance.
