Condition Report
The tea service appears to be in fairly good condition. All four pieces display general wear, tarnishing to some areas and general surface marks and scratches. There are also remnants of polish to some areas. Some deeper scratches in places and various minor nicks in the metal. Hinged covers are in good working order. Finial to the hot water pot is a little loose and cannot be tightened and the lower section is probably a replacement. Hallmarks are all clear and legible, part hallmarks to lids. Also impressed maker's marks to underside of each.
