Condition Report
In fair to good overall condition, the dishes all displaying general wear including surface scratches and marks commensurate with the age and use. Quite heavy tarnishing is visible to some areas and they would all benefit from a clean and polish. Small hole in the metal to the centre of one of the dishes. Some loss of surface definition and detail to some of the decoration, especially the figurative scenes to the centre. General edge nicks. The hallmarks are clear and legible, maker's mark to one is partly distorted.
