There are no major breaks or cracks. The case is without the key. The set is missing one of the small glass containers. Tarnishing to the metal components. Accretions gathered along the glass interiors. Light surface scratches throughout, commensurate with age and use. Some small areas of soiling to the fabric lining along the lid interior. The lid opens and closes with ease. The locking mechanism functions well. Light wear to the case, including small scuffs and scratches along the extreme edges and high points.
