Condition Report
The bottle appears in fairly good overall condition, displaying some expected surface wear, marks and scratches commensurate with the age and use. Some minor surface nicks and nibbles with some deeper scratches and heavier contact marks visible to the underside of the base. The cameo glass panel has a couple of minor nibbles and a slightly larger chip around the edge. Engraved below with the word 'ratent'? or 'patent'. The screw thread collar appears unmarked. The silver lid is a little tarnished and displays a few small surface dints and bumps. Hallmarks are quite rubbed, especially the lion passant and maker's mark.
