In overall good condition, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The hinged lid and grille shut fully flush. The vinaigrette has significant areas of verdigris to the interior edges, hinges and grille, some visible to the exterior. It is engraved 'J.S?' to the cartouche. Removable sponge present.
