Condition Report
The spoon is quite tarnished and displays general wear and surface marks and scratches in keeping with the age and use. The metal of the spade bowl now appears quite thin, there are some rim nicks and a small split in the metal near to the join of the handle, on one side. Some slight loss of detail to decoration but it is still generally okay. Hallmarks to the reverse of the bowl are slightly distorted in some areas but still legible.
