Condition Report
The caster is quite tarnished and displays general surface wear, marks and scratches. Various minor nicks in the metal and some edge knocks around the base rim. Detachable cover fits on tightly and is struck with a full set of hallmarks, which are clear and legible. There are contact marks to the main body, caused by the lid being pulled on and off. Hallmarks to main caster are legible with some slight distortion to the maker's mark.
