Condition Report
All the pieces display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use and to varying degrees. The Victorian and Edwardian cream jugs display very heavy tarnishing and would benefit from a clean and polish. Some small surface dints and bumps and knocks to edges, etc. The feet on the Victorian jug are quite knocked and bent. The hallmarks on the plain jug are very indistinct, however all other marks are legible.
