Condition Report
The pepper displays scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The reeding to the lid is very rubbed, with loss in definition. Removed engraving from the body leaving the area thin and creased. The hallmarks distorted but legible, the makers mark only part visible to the body and remnants of the makers mark and standard mark visible to the rim of the lid. The base does wobbles a little.
