There is a small dent to the main body near to one handle, otherwise in generally overall good condition, commensurate with age and use. Hallmarks clear.
The finial moves and can be removed. Unsure whether or not it should?? The finial has a fixed tubular neck which is pierced and may have something missing from the end which stopped it from being removed??
The interior cylinder is present and appears to be original and it can be removed.
