Condition Report
The dish displays general surface scratches, marks and wear commensurate with the age and use. Heavy tarnishing is visible throughout and there are remnants of ash to the centre, so it would benefit from a clean and polish. Some small dints and bumps and the circular form is now a little misshapen. There is also a knock to the foot rim so that it is squashed on one side and a slight impression is visible to the interior. The hallmarks are located to the underside, they appear a little rubbed but are still clear and legible.
