Condition Report
Both salts display general surface scratches, marks and wear commensurate with the age and use. Heavy tarnishing and spots of tarnishing to the interior are visible and both would benefit from a clean and polish. Some small surface dints are visible, mainly to one of the salts. Some rubbing and distortion to hallmarks and maker's marks but they are all still legible. Both are also engraved to the underside with the initials 'S H'. Likely replacement liners.
