Condition Report
The overall condition appears fairly good, there are some general surface scratches and marks and general wear in keeping with the age and use. Heavy tarnishing is visible to some areas and it would benefit from a clean and polish. The engraved decoration still appears fairly crisp. Some deeper nicks are visible and there are also some small surface dints, mainly visible to the rounded base and top of the handle. Small knock to the foot rim and the main rim is very slightly misshapen. Slight rubbing to maker's mark and hallmarks but all still clear and legible.
