Condition Report
The box appears in fairly good overall condition, displaying general surface scratches, nicks, contact marks and wear commensurate with the age and use. Some quite heavy tarnishing visible and it would benefit from a clean and polish. Hinges appear in good working order. The interior is likely re-gilded. The hallmarks are clear and legible, slight distortion to maker's marks but still legible.
