Each overall good condition with tarnishing and light scratches commensurate with age. Chafing stand arms slightly bent so the kettle sits nicely but tilted slightly forward. Each piece with date added to underside "June 6. 1872." Weight includes non-silver components. Ivory insulators have been replaced. Condition reports are offered as a courtesy and are typically published in Moran's catalogue or can be made available upon request. The absence of a condition report does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of others. Buyers are responsible for determining to their own satisfaction the true nature and condition of any lot prior to bidding. Though buyers are not legally required to inspect lots prior to purchase, failure to do so may constitute a waiver of complaint that an item was not delivered in a condition equal to the existent condition at the auction.
