Condition Report
The coffee set appears in fairly good overall condition, displaying general surface scratches, marks and wear commensurate with the age and use. Some quite heavy tarnishing is visible and all the pieces would benefit from a clean and polish. Some minor dints. A couple of splits starting to appear around the spout. Maker's mark is clearly legible.
