Condition Report
Items are in varied condition. All display some tarnishing, general wear, surface marks and scratches and various minor nicks, especially to edges. The bowl on the Hanoverian spoon is not in very good condition as there are numerous nicks and dints and the metal appears very thin. There is also loss of detail to the shell back and the hallmarks are partly distorted. On one of the pairs of sugar nips, the bowls have several dints and one of them has a large split in the metal. The metal on the other spoon bowls also appears thinner towards the tips. Wear and small dints to the edges of the blade. Various dints to the ladle and edge nicks and chips to the handle. Hallmarks are mainly legible.
