Varied condition, however all the pieces in the lot display general surface scratches, marks, wear and light tarnishing commensurate with the age and use.  Numerous deeper scratches and nicks are visible through heavier usage.  More wear to some of the spoon bowls, especially around edges and towards the tips, and some are a little misshapen.  Some of the knife handles are coming away from the blades so that there are some gaps between blade and handle.  Slight loss of detail to decoration in places.  Some wear to the gilding.  General wear to the tips of the fork prongs and some are quite bent and ground down on the ends.  Some of maker's marks are partially distorted or obscured but many are still clear and legible.
