Condition Report
The forks display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Deeper scratches and nicks in the metal are visible. There is wear to the fork prongs, but the Victorian examples have generally faired quite well. The hallmarks on these forks are clear and legible. There is more wear to the tips of the prongs on the Georgian forks. Some of the maker's marks are quite rubbed, but other hallmarks are clear and legible.
