Condition Report
In varied state. All the pieces display general wear including surface marks and scratches and some tarnishing in keeping with their age and use and to varying degrees. Dints and bumps and heavier wear to some of the spoon bowls, especially around the edges and tips. Some of the bowls are also a little misshapen. The tines of the Victorian fork are a little bent with heavier wear to the tips. The sifter spoon and German forks appear in fairly good condition. Rubbing and distortion to some of the hallmarks but they are mainly legible.
