Condition Report
Chips to the bottom and top of the tortoiseshell handle, but the enamel and rock crystal appear in good order with one two very small dots of discolouration to the enamel that are likely glue. Mechanism in good working order and stamped B&Co.. Minor spots or marks to the fabric but no tears, more evidence of discolouration and use to the fabric sleeve. General marks and signs of light use throughout but mainly to the stick itself and to the pointed end.
