Condition Report
The item displays general wear and surface marks and scratches commensurate with the age and use. There is some slight tarnishing and remnants of polish in some areas. The scratches appear deeper and more visible to the underside. There are some minor dints and nicks in the metal in places, one noticeable one to the detachable lid. The circular rim of the jar is slightly misshapen and the lid fits on very tightly. The finial on the lid is pushed in slightly, which is visible on the interior. Hallmarks are slightly rubbed but still clear and legible. There is no liner.
