Condition Report
The samovar displays expected surface wear, tarnishing, surface marks and scratches commensurate with age and use. Slight knocks to square base so that one corner rises a little and it wobbles. Evidence of likely repairs to one of the handles, around the join of the tap to the main body, and to one of the small protrusions on the upper part, which is also bent over. Some minor chips to enamel and larger losses to some areas. The cover fits but is fairly loose. Appears unmarked. Total weight is 120.8 grams.
