Condition Report
The case displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. There are some deeper scratches visible to some areas and a little bit more wear around the edges and to corners. However, the general overall condition appears good and the engraved decoration to the front is still clear and crisp. Hinges and clasp are in good working order. The maker's mark is partly worn, otherwise the hallmarks are clear and legible. Some wear and deterioration to the case.
