More Information

Overall condition is good. One leg is slightly bent (visible on the third picture, the back left hand leg), but it still sits flat on a level surface. Cover opens and closes smoothly, but does leave a slight gap between the cover and the opening. No major denting, splitting or signs of repair. Engravings are clear, hallmarks have slight wear but are legible. Gilt interior shows some wear, but is mostly in tact.
