Condition Report
The coffee pot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Heavier tarnishing visible to some areas and it would benefit from a clean and polish. Some surface dints and bumps, also some deeper nicks/scratches. A few knocks to the foot rim and it wobbles very slightly when standing. Replacement fixings at the base of the wood handle. Some cracks/chips in the wood finial. Hinged lid appears in working order, there is just a slight gap remaining when in the closed position. The hallmarks appear rubbed but legible.
