More Information

The cover is slightly misshapen to one side and has some tiny losses to the enamel and some hairline cracks to the white enamel. The finials appears to have been pushed down slightly to the centre but there is no obvious damage around the immediate area. The feet have some tarnish and grubbiness around them. Some occasional scuffs scratches and tiny dents otherwise in reasonable condition.
