The cracks described for the lot do run right through teh wall of the coffee pot and can be seen on the interior. The top of the handle has also been badly cracked through and there is a couple of chips to the rim of the coffee pot, one at the main crack and another just above the spout. The lid also has a chip to teh gilt rim and the finial has been broken off and repaired and is also very chipped. There is some light wear to the gilt banding.
