Condition Report
Both items display general wear, some areas and spots of tarnishing and general surface marks and scratches. The rose bowl has some deeper scratches to some areas, especially some visible to the interior, and there are several minor surface dints. Knock to the foot rim so that it is slightly misshapen and remnants of polish to some areas. Hallmarks are quite rubbed and distorted, especially date letter and maker's mark. The mesh insert is damaged and broken in places. Hallmarks on the modern dish are clear and legible.
