Condition Report
All items in the lot display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The silver bowl displays numerous deeper scratches and nicks and also contact marks to the underside. There are a couple of small dints and knocks around the foot rim and also two or three minor dints to the main body. The hallmarks are clear and legible. Heavier tarnishing is visible to the coasters and they would benefit from a clean and polish. There are also some small slight surface dints and seam lines are visible. Remnants of polish visible to the embossed areas and a couple of tiny holes. The fish eaters are also quite heavily tarnished and there is quite a lot of damage to the handles. It appears as though the veneer has been stripped.
