This carafe was manufactured between 1966-1970. The lacquered copper lid has 4 scratches, and there is tarnish under those spots, as seen in the photos. The lacquer is easy to remove, and then the tarnish can be polished off. I have left it as is to allow for buyer's choice. The rest is flawless, with no chips, cracks, or scratches. Dimensions: 10 inches high
