CONDITION...
]
- Beautiful antique condition, from a non-smoking environment.
- Missing the internal stopper
- This jar saw many years of loving use. Note three dings on the lid, some faint scratches on the bottom of the jar, and wear on the external monograms.  Also note that the maker stamped the William Hutton & Sons, Ltd. monogram on the inside of the lid, right at dead center.  They stamped it deep enough that it caused the silver to wear thin in that spot from normal use and handling, resulting in a pinhole approx. 1/16" diameter.  It is a lovely piece nonetheless, and it has been priced accordingly.  Please enjoy the bargain!
Notice that the sterling has NOT been polished.  Many of our customers prefer to polish the silver themselves, so we have left it unpolished for you.  Of course, we will be glad to polish it before shipping if you wish; just let us know.
The above is my good-faith attempt to disclose all noteworthy issues. Keep in mind that vintage/antique items always show their age. (Don't we all!?)  It would be impossible to mention every tiny detail, so please expect that
there will be something
about this item (or lot) that's not perfect and may need touch-up.
PLEASE SUPERSIZE ALL PHOTOS, AND ASK ALL QUESTIONS BEFORE BIDDING/BUYING.  I'LL BE GLAD TO ANSWER.
