Condition Report
The caster displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Some minor dints. Also knocks to the foot rim so that it is a little misshapen. It is slightly pushed into the rounded base of the caster on one side. Heavier staining and tarnishing to the interior of both lid and caster body. Some loss of detail to engraved line decoration on the cover. The hallmarks are located to the underside, some rubbing and slight distortion but still clearly legible. Also with engraved initials to the underside of foot rim, an 'S' over 'T M'. The cover appears unmarked.
