Clean, true antique, collectible, as well as a ready-to-use piece of a great pattern. It shows typical signs of normal age/ use while having a nice antique look, especially for being from 1871! I have many more great antique and vintage items also so please check out my other listings. I'll appreciate it if you spread the word and follow me. I also can reduce shipping costs on multiple orders if you ask me in advance before paying.
