Condition Report
The salvers sit evenly on the feet. The engraving is quite rubbed throughout and the armorials have lost some definition of detail. Both salvers have splits to the rims near the nine o’clock position. The rim to one also has a noticeable crease above one of the feet. General finger marks and tarnishing throughout commensurate with age and handling. Hallmarks clear and legible.
