Condition Report:

  • Displaying some general surface wear, marks, scratches and tarnishing commensurate with age.
  • Heavier tarnishing to some parts, and residues of dried polish.
  • With some minor surface nicks and dints, and pitting type marks to some areas.
  • Surface wear and rubbing to areas of the decoration, causing some slight loss of detail or definition.
  • Hinges to head are a little loose; it does close however not very securely as it will open again very easily.
