Condition Report
Appears in fairly good overall condition, displaying some general surface wear, marks, scratches and tarnishing consistent with the age and use. Residues of polish.
Some minor surface nicks and slightly heavier wear around edges and to corners.
Some surface wear to decoration but overall still fairly crisp and bright.
Both hinged lids appear in good working order and close securely. Main lid rises very slightly when closed so that there is a small gap.
Hallmarks to interior base and lid, rubbed but still legible. Part of a lion passant visible to reverse of lid.
