Condition Report
The caster displays general wear commensurate with the age and use. There are light surface marks and scratches and also various small nicks and dints. The seam line on the main body is just visible. The foot rim is very slightly misshapen due to some dints around the edge. There are contact marks and scratches to the inner rim of the detachable lid. There is a lion passant mark to the lid, which is rubbed but still legible. The main hallmarks to the underside are still clear, apart from the maker's mark, which is partly distorted.
