Condition Report
The bell displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. There is some damage and a possible repair to the figure, in particular to the area where St George is holding the end of the spear. The spear now has a large bend in it, rather than being straight. Various nicks, some deeper scratches and some small surface dints visible to the bell section. The hallmarks are clear and legible.
