Condition Report
The scent bottle displays some general wear, surface marks, scratches and tarnishing in keeping with the age and general use. There are a few minor surface dints, mainly visible to the lower body and also around the lid. There is some slight loss of surface detail to the decoration, mainly on the lid. The screw lid is a good fit. Hallmarks to the lid are clear and legible, however they are quite rubbed to the main body, in particular the date letter and lion passant. The box is in a worn condition.
