Condition Report
All the pieces in the lot display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with their age and use. All would benefit from a clean and polish. Some small dints and bumps visible to the vesta and scent bottle. The hinged lid of the vesta appears in good working order. On the scent bottle, the neck mount is lifting from the main body and gaps are visible when closed. Glass stopper also appears jammed in position. The hallmarks are mainly legible although there is some rubbing.
