Condition Report
The flask appears in reasonable overall condition, displaying some general wear, surface scratches and marks in keeping with the age and general use. Also some tarnishing to the silver. A few minor nicks and dints. Residues of polish. The bayonet locking mechanism is not working because the small piece on the rim has broken off. Therefore the lid does not stay closed securely. The hallmarks and maker's marks appear a little rubbed but are still legible.
