NO chips, cracks or repairs to the antique Cranberry art glass Jar/insert, just a bit of roughness around the rim. The tall Tufts silverplate Frame is amazing - there may have been an accent piece on the top of the handle - only a smooth solder mark remains - The last photo is one I found that shows the same Tufts Pickle Castor #2355 with its original top piece - missing from This frame - not really much of a loss, but might have added an inch! The lid is a pretty piece with a fancy floral handle as a finial, a good fit for the bowl/jar with a little play - a small, slightly off center monogram looks like'MMA' - a Beautiful Victorian era Pickle Castor - circa 1890's.
