Condition Report
In varied state, however all the items in the lot display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The overall condition of the open salts appears to be okay. Two of the feet on the twin handled open salt are slightly upturned so that it wobbles a little when standing. The mustard pot is in fairly poor condition as the feet are quite squashed or bent. Chips to some of the glass liners. Some rubbing and distortion but the hallmarks, when present, are mainly legible.
