Condition Report
The casket displays general surface scratches, marks, and wear, commensurate with the age and use. There is some quite heavy tarnishing and it would benefit from a clean and polish. Heavier marks and scratches to some areas and a couple of slight dints/knocks. Hinged lid appears in working order. The material lining appears quite faded and discoloured. Appears unmarked.
