Condition Report
The lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Good to fair overall condition. Wear to gilt finish. Spoon shows slight bends to the stem. The jade cylinder to the salt appears very slightly lop-sided. The cylinder to the salt is slightly indented to one part of the rim, possibly to mostly erase a small area of discolouration.
