Condition Report
The tea poy displays general scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The rim to the body and lid have become a little misshapen. The gilding to the interior is very bright and possibly have been recently redone. The hallmarks to the body are clear and legible, to the rim of lid they appear quite rubbed.
