Condition Report
Both spoons display general wear, all over tarnishing and general surface marks and scratches, commensurate with their age and use. Some deeper and more visible scratches, especially to the interior of the bowls and numerous minor nicks in the metal all over. The bowls have faired reasonably well, although there is more wear to the tips and the metal appears a little thinner in places. Hallmarks to reverse of stem are clear and legible.
