Condition Report
The caddy appears in good overall condition, displaying some general tarnishing, surface marks and scratches. A few minor surface dints/nicks. The hinged lid appears in good working order although it does not sit quite flush, leaving a slight gap. The finial leans back a little so it is possible that it may have been knocked as there is a split in the metal at the join? Hallmarks are located to underside of base and are clear and legible, also clear part hallmarks to lid.
