Condition Report
All spoons are quite heavily tarnished and display general wear and surface marks and scratches. The metal on each spoon appears to be quite thin anyway, and there is a little bit more wear towards the tips of the bowls. There are some deeper more visible scratches in places and some minor nicks/dints around the rims and edges. Struck marks are mainly legible.
