The box appears in good overall condition, displaying some general light wear, surface marks and scratches. Some minor edge nicks to metal mounts. It does screw and unscrew okay but it does get a bit stuck in the screwed position. It is possible that the ivory lid is not the original one and that the two parts are a marriage. Only the monogrammed panel has been tested and tested at 57%
