In excellent condition, hinge in very good condition, closes tight.
This was used in my grandfathers hometown ice cream shop.
How they were used: The ice cream would be spooned into both sides of the mold. The mold was then closed and both sides were pressed firmly together. The heavy pewter kept the cold inside. This kept the ice cream firm and in the shape of the mold. When the mold was opened..., the ice cream would be placed on a plate in such a manner that the design was exposed adding a visual delight as well as one for the taste buds.
You could also use this mold to make other types of molds like plaster casts, etc
