Condition Report
In good overall condition. The lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use.
A little loss of definition to some of the decoration. Cartouche to lid feels a little concave and may have had an engraving removed. Smartwater/UV numbers have been written to the lid interior. Areas of the silver-gilt have worn. The hallmarks a little distorted but worn.
