Condition
Good overall condition. The gilt bronze presents with some light tarnishing overall, instances of light wear and instances of oxidation including a few oxidation stains scattered. The enamel appears to be in very good original condition and presents with a few rare and very light surface scratches. The inside of the casket is covered with green fabric. There are three small tears of fabric. The fabric on the underside of the lid is partially unfixed along one corner. This lot is sold with its original key. One screw is missing on the underside, this does not affect the soundness of the structure. Some surface soiling. All consistent with age and use.
