Condition Report
All three spoons display general wear, tarnishing and general surface marks and scratches in keeping with their age and use. There are some deeper scratches in places and various minor nicks in the metal. The pair of spoons are more heavily tarnished and one of the spoon bowls has a small dint to the rim on one side. There is also some slight loss of detail to the engraved crests. Hallmarks to the reverse of the stem are a little squashed in places but all are legible. The single spoon displays more visible scratches all over and especially to the spoon bowl, where there are also some more visible nicks and minor dints. The metal also appears quite thin in places, mainly towards the tip of the bowl. Hallmarks to reverse of terminal are very clear.
