Condition Report
All three pieces display general surface scratches, marks and wear commensurate with the age and use. There is some quite heavy tarnishing visible to the silver mounts and they would benefit from a clean and polish. The enamel appears in fairly good condition. Some minor edge nicks to glass bottles and a larger chip visible to rim of the perfume bottle. The hallmarks appear rubbed in places but are all still legible. Some deterioration to case.
