Excellent. Some wear to the gold band, but a majority of it is quite OK. The vendor never cleaned this lid as he did not want to get rid of this original gold leaf, so this is very much as found! Some surface rust to the face. Discoloured crazing throughout. A little fine wear to the outer rim. Tiny nick or two to the bottom of the flange. Come with a base that has stain, crazing and a few hairlines. A careful, professional clean will leave a great example. Grade: 8 Estimate: $600 - 800
