The casters are in good condition with some wear commensurate with their age and use. There is evidence of some wear through over polishing to the tops (more evident on one than the other). There is no obvious denting, however one caster displays an area of discolouration along one side where it appears a split may have been repaired. It is also likely the case that the feet and bottoms of the tops may have been resoldered at some point. It should be noted that there is also a little pinprick pitting in places, particularly around the foot areas. The hallmarks and part marks are crisp, however the crest displays some wear through over polishing.
