Very Good. Scrape mark to vesta holder. This part has some rust stain and discoloured crazing as well. Gold leaf border to base this sits on is worn. The tray part below this has a series of four discoloured hairlines, a few other ones around which is pretty much simply crazing. Couple of little spots of pink stain. Gold leaf to outer edge of tray part is also slightly worn. Some staining to the writing part, the COT of SCOTCH has some missing parts and stain as well. The lower gold leaf band is mostly intact. Little discoloured impact mark under base with a few short hairlines from it. Some discolouration under the base and crazing. Great, undamaged example, this is quite hard to get.
