Purchasing information
    Appears in fairly good overall condition, with all pieces retaining a nice planished finish. All displaying some general surface wear, marks, scratches and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use with heavier tarnishing to some areas. There are a number of small surface dints to all pieces. In addition there is a further small area of damage to the teapot, at the join of the handle to the strap on the main body. There is a break in the metal and evidence of a previous repair and it will require attention. Both lids appear to be a good flush fit. General wear to wicker handles with residues of dirt. Hallmarks are located to the underside of each piece and are mostly clear and legible with some slight rubbing or distortion. Both pots also marked CYMRIC.
