Condition Report
The pepper appears in fair to good condition, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Remnants of polish visible. The circular base ever so slightly does not sit flat, significant discolouration and spotting visible to the top of the base, probably needs professional polish to remove. Some creases to the inner rim of the pepper. Hallmarks clear and legible, no partial marks to the detachable lid.
