The pitcher displays general wear and surface marks and scratches commensurate with the age and use.  There are some deeper scratches in places and especially to the underside.  There is a little tarnishing and remnants of polish in some areas.  There are some minor nicks/dints in the metal in places, the most noticeable dint being on the bulbous part of the main body on the spout side.   The ivory appears to be generally okay, just a little dirty in places.  Makers' marks to the underside are very clear and legible.
