Condition Report
All three holders display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The 1914 example appears in good overall condition, hinge and clasp in good working order and hallmarks are clear and legible. The other two are heavily tarnished and display several dints and bumps, especially the triple holder. It is likely that the triple holder had a push release button but part of this is now missing so it is quite difficult to open. Some rubbing to hallmarks on these two but they are still legible.
