This vinaigrette is simple and elegant. It appears to be unused. The box hinge and grille hinge both work fine. Box opens and closes properly. Free of dents and dings. Very light scratches on the surface.
This vinaigrette came from a large collection of antique vinaigrettes and nutmeg graters I found in a local estate sale. The owner kindly presented prior receipts, from which I learnt that the collection was acquired from various jewelers and antique dealers in the last 25 years.
