Condition Report
Teapot is quite tarnished all over and displays general wear and surface marks and scratches commensurate with the age and use. Some general small surface dints, including some visible ones to the handle, and some loss of detail to the decoration in some areas. There is a knock to one side of the foot rim and it is slightly misshapen. There is also a possible repair in the same area as some solder is visible. Hinged cover is in good working order. Full hallmarks to the underside are clear and legible, there are also part hallmarks to the finial and handle.
