Silver displays some light tarnishing, general wear and light surface marks and scratches.  Matchbox holder has a number of small surface dints, especially around edges.  Area of solder visible to underside, by one of the ball feet.  It appears to be a repair as a seperate piece has been added as a strengthener.  Some loss of detail to decoration.  Hallmarks rubbed but still legible.  Various minor edge and rim nicks to glass bottle.  Hallmarks to the silver lid are very clear and legible.
