No dents or rust, has some light scratches but they don't affect its function or aesthetics. Has some leftover glue residue left on the inside from an old price tag or something like that. Measures 10.5" long x 6.25" tall x 2" deep. On the inner back tag it says "Printed in China" and "Gencoptg.doc 03/99" which I'm assuming is the manufacturing date. Can be used as decor or cookware. Please follow instructions provided on the tag if using for cookware. Keywords: art, country, farm, kitchen, decor
