Condition Report
There is general light tarnishing to most pieces, with slightly heavier tarnishing to the coffee bean spoons. They also display light wear and surface marks and scratches. The sugar nips are now quite bent and out of shape. The spoon bowls have generally faired quite well, with a little bit more wear towards the tips. A couple of the spoon bowls on the 1930's set are very slightly misshapen. Hallmarks are mainly legible.
