Sold for £220Condition report
There are several cracks to the enamel on the body of this lot, 2 on the outside and numerous to the interior. As catalogued the hinge is missing the pin and so the lid is loose. The lid also has damage, there is a crack between the words A and trifle and some wear to the centre of the sails and also to the waves around the bottom.
