*Condition*
Good antique condition. The satin glass is free of cracks or chips. There are scattered surface marks, light scratches, and areas of age-related discoloration consistent with over 100 years of use. The metal lid retains an attractive aged patina and shows wear, including a split/open seam along the edge (shown in photos) but remains functional and displays well. Please review all photographs as they are part of the description.
