All three items display general wear including surface scratches and marks. The cylindrical case has a large dint to one side and some smaller ones. Some loss of detail to the decoration. Hallmarks slightly rubbed but still legible. One of the lids also has a full set of hallmarks, which are clear and legible. The lid with the finial does not appear to be struck with hallmarks. The rim on this lid is a little dinted and the inner flange is very misshapen and dinted. The silver lid on the larger scent bottle displays heavier areas of tarnishing and numerous dints, bumps and creases in the metal. Small areas of damage to the enamel on the other lid. Some slight distortion but hallmarks mainly legible. Small chips to glass on both bottles.
