Condition Report
Condition good to fair. No damages to silver, though wear throughout commensurate with use and age. Wear to horn most noticeable to rings, also with minor chip and surface hairline. Not apparent how lighting mechanism works, looks to be lacking sticker or flint and so unable to test that function. Additional images now available.
