Condition:
Box: The wooden box is in good structural condition with age-appropriate wear to the finish. The original latch is intact. The interior paper label shows significant wear, flaking, and discoloration but is mostly legible (please see photos). The fabric lining is aged and worn.
Cutlery: The flatware is in good vintage condition with no major damage. It shows significant tarnish, which is expected for its age, and could be polished to a brilliant shine or left with its natural patina. There are surface scratches consistent with use. Please review all photos carefully as they are part of the description.
This is a fantastic opportunity to own a piece of American hardware history from one of its most respected brands.
