Condition Report
Varied condition, however all the pieces display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Numerous deeper scratches and nicks are visible throughout and especially to the spoon bowls. More wear is visible around edges and to the tips of many of the spoon bowls. Also more wear to the tips of the fork prongs. The table forks have generally faired quite well. However the prongs on the dessert forks are quite uneven, ground down and of different lengths. Hallmarks are mainly clear and legible.
