Condition Report
The spoons and forks appear in varied state, all displaying general wear including surface scratches, nicks, marks and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use and to varying degrees. All the fork tines are in a well used state, ground down, bent and of uneven length. Some dints and bumps to the spoon bowls but they have generally faired quite well. Some loss of detail to the engraved motif on the reverse. Some distortion but the struck marks are mainly legible.
