Condition Report
The lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with age and use. The hallmarks and maker's marks are clear and legible with the exception of rubbing to the maker's mark on the cream jug and the date letter on the sugar bowl. The hinged lid is slightly loose allowing for minor movement from side to side and there is a small dent lifting the edge towards the spout. A small repair is also visible to the opening of the spout. Two shallow dents to the sugar bowl. There appears to have been some repair work done to the handle on one side of the sugar bowl where a flood of solder is visible.
