Condition Report
All spoons display some tarnishing, general wear and surface marks and scratches. Also various minor nicks, especially to edges. The spoon bowls have generally faired quite well although some of them do display more wear towards the tips, especially the set of six spoons as the metal appears thinner in this area. All hallmarks are legible. Some deterioration to cases.
