Lid appears to be a good fit. Several cracks to the wood handle and protruding slightly from the silver mount so that a gap is visible. Further cracks to wood finial. The saucepan wobbles slightly on its base. Full hallmarks to the underside and part hallmarks to lid. Some rubbing and distortion but mostly legible.
