The largest area of solder repair (the side) has thinning around the solder patch and a small puncture which is still visible. There is splitting to some of the high point ridges on the body. There are some small dents to the exterior and interior. There is general scratching and wear to the interior, exterior and base consistent with age and use. There appears to be numbers lightly scratched into the base. There is wear to the gilt interior, concentrated around the lip. The jug sits flat on a level surface, though does shift it' weight when pressed down. There is a moderate amount of wear to the hallmarks.
