Condition Report
The pot displays general wear and surface marks and scratches commensurate with the age and use. Silver mounts are a little tarnished and display some minor nicks and surface dints. There are some visible scratches to the tortoiseshell, especially to the underside and interior of the lid, but it is generally okay. The hallmarks are legible, however the the maker's marks are partly distorted and therefore not very clear.
