Condition Report
Items are in varied state, however all display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Numerous deeper scratches and nicks are visible to the salad servers and serving spoon, also some surface bumps. Spots of tarnishing are visible, especially to the serving spoon bowl. Loss of detail to engraved decoration on the stem and terminal. The foot of the pepper pot has been knocked on one side so that it wobbles slightly when standing. The lid of the salt pot is a very tight fit, possibly due to heavy tarnishing to the interior. All the hallmarks are clear and legible.
