Condition Report
The coffee pot appears in fairly good overall condition, displaying general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Heavier scratches and marks visible to some areas, also slight dints including a couple to the flange of the lid. Some slight loss of surface detail or definition to the decoration but it is still good. Hinged lid appears in good working order. The hallmarks are clear and legible, also corresponding part hallmarks to the lid.
