Condition Report
The spirit kettle appears in good overall condition, displaying general tarnishing and some surface wear, marks and scratches. Residues of polish. Hinged lid appears in good working order. Staining a little faded on wood handle and wood finial to lid is very faded with a split and a section missing. One of the keys is a little bent and therefore does not fit properly in the hinge on the stand. Hallmarked to various parts and mainly clear and legible.
