Revolver frame, hammer, triggerguard, buttstrap and toe are profusely engraved in a floral motif.  Revolver mechanics are crisp and strong. All nipples are tight and unbroken. Frame screws are slightly buggered. Stampings are clear.   Revolver never cleaned and exhibits light areas of minor rust oxidation.  Two-piece, varnished rosewood wood grips are excellent.
