All pieces display general wear, tarnishing and surface marks and scratches in keeping with their age and use.  Some deeper more visible scratches in places and various minor nicks in the metal.  There is some loss of detail to the decoration in places.  In general, there is quite a lot of wear to the fork prongs, towards the tips and most are slightly bent.   There is also more wear to the spoon bowls, especially towards the tips.  The bowls of the teaspoons and condiment spoon in particular, feel quite thin in places and some are a little misshapen.  Hallmarks are generally legible, although some marks are a little distorted, especially the maker's marks.
