Condition Report;
Interior of the base has a few stains and the gilding is a little weak, hallmarks are clear, hinge at one end when viewed from the inside appears to have become detached in the past, however, hinge works well and nothing is apparent when viewed from the exterior. Exterior is in good condition. Slight wear to the figures on the lid. It does not close quite flushly.
