The vinaigrette displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use.  A little bit more wear around edges and corners.  The main hinge is broken at one end and the lid is rising slightly when in a closed position.  Some wear and deterioration to hallmarks but they are still legible.
