The overall condition of the mustard pot appears to be fairly good.  There is general wear and surface marks and scratches commensurate with the age.  There is also a little bit of tarnishing and some pitting to the metal and minor edge nicks.  There are numerous visible and deeper scratches to the interior.  The hinged lid is fairly loose but still in working order.  However, there are some rubbed marks to the interior from where the lid has rested or knocked against the metal.  The full set of hallmarks to the underside are still very clear and there are further part hallmarks to the flower finial.
