No chips or damage, I am not sure how this originally smelled so can not say for sure that would still be the same or if it has changed with time. Please see the pictures it appears to be nearly full. One of several items I will be listing for someone who used to have an antique booth and collected for many years. I will be going through one box at a time which includes everything from planters, dinnerware, figurines and so much more. Please check back as I will list pieces as I have time and will always combine shipping on more than one item. Many of the pieces are taken from the box they were stored in and pictured for listings, they could need some cleaning or to be wiped down, if I notice anything else I will be sure to mention it and show pictures. I am by no means educated on vintage and antique items so do my best to show them in the pictures. Feel free to ask any questions and I will do all I can to answer them. I ship Monday - Friday mornings by 9:30. Our post office closes at 9 am on Saturday so I do not ship on weekends. Shipping is calculated by the weight and dimensions of the package to your zip code and through the postal service. I do reuse good clean boxes and packing materials if I have a box that is the perfect size for the item.
