Condition Report
The salver displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. There are deeper scratches visible to some areas, especially some areas to the centre of the tray and also various minor nicks in the metal. Pitting marks to the underside. Engraved decoration to centre still appears fairly good with only slight loss of detail in places. The hallmarks are clear and legible. The candlesticks are in poor condition with numerous dints and creases in the metal. Some wear to hallmarks but still legible.
