Condition Report
The box displays some general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Some slight surface dints and also knocks to the feet. The hinged lid is in working order but when closed it overhangs slightly on one side. The interior lining is quite faded and discoloured, especially in the lid. The hallmarks appear a little rubbed but legible. Part hallmarks to lid are also rubbed.
