Condition Report
All pieces display general light wear and surface marks and scratches and a little tarnishing to varying degrees. However overall, the set appears to be in fairly good condition. Interiors of both salts are quite tarnished. Hinged covers to mustard pots in working order, although one of the lids leaves a gap when closed. Detachable lids to pepper pots fit well. A couple of the spoons are quite tarnished. Some of the hallmarks are slightly rubbed/distorted but all are legible.
