Purchasing information-
The toast rack displays general scratches, marks, dints, wear and tarnishing overall commensurate with the age and use. Two splits are visible to each side of one corner. The toast rack does wobble when sat on a flat surface. The hallmarks lightly rubbed but easily legible, makers mark almost completely distorted but possibly a Barnard mark with a quatrefoil shape visible and the top of a EB?.
