Condition Report
Displaying some general tarnishing and some expected surface wear, marks and scratches consistent with age. A coupe of minor surface dints. Some heavier scratches and nicks to the interior and it was likely once gilded but this has now faded. The swing handle does self support but will fall quite easily. Likely repair around the hinge on one side. A couple of slight knocks to foot rim so that it wobbles very slightly when standing. Hallmarks are located to the underside of the foot and these are all clear and legible with only some slight distortion to the 'A' of the maker's mark.
