It is hard to take pictures of something so reflective. But it was not until I was taking the pictures that I realized there are a few flaws. The second picture, shows a scratch, Pic 3 shows a small bubble on the left inside angle of the handle, Pic 5 shows a bubble and a very slight dent on the upper right side of the pot. Pic 6 shows a small bubble on the right bottom side of the pot. Pic 8 shows some scratches on the middle bottom left side of the pot. Pic 9 and 10 show a small bubble on the lid. The largest bubble I could not get a pic of but it is on the lower portion of the pot where it meets the upper portion, by the spout. I did not find any spots of missing silver. It is a real beautiful pot.. Category: Antiques › Silver › Silverplate › Tea/Coffee Pots & Sets. Brand: Wilcox Silver Plate Co..
