Purchasing information
    In good condition, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. One of the hinges has some sideways movement causing the lid to lean back further. One of the wooden handles is loose around the join to the body. They are significantly tarnished with dirt residue to the interior and exterior which can be felt we touched, also some sticker residue, would benefit from a clean. Construction seams visible down the back of the pots. The retailer's box for Lowe & Sons, Chester has some discolouration, scuffs and marks to the base. Hallmarks rubbed and worn but legible, partial hallmarks to various sections.
