March 04, 2015

Generally “very good”. There is a slight  or minor “dink” or flaw in the metal, which may well have been made during casting. The ivory has taken on the most lovely “toffee coloured” patination over time. Very minor hairline age cracks to the ivory. Traces of snuff remain inside. The inscription is clear and un-rubbed.
