I just checked some pictures of other sets and one does show a latch, I don't recall one on my set, but it's been years since I had the lid off, maybe I just forgot.

I don't think I'd remove it, if you must make it look better maybe you can apply some paint stripper to it to remove the lacquer, it's far enough from the cabinet that should be possible.
