Condition Report
All the spoons display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Heavier tarnishing to the German spoon. All would benefit from a clean. Some rubbing and slight loss of surface detail to engraved decoration and initials on the Georgian spoons, some dints and bumps to the bowls and heavier wear around the edges and to the tips. Some of the bowls are a little misshapen and the metal feels very thin, also the drops to the heels are very worn. The hallmarks appear rubbed but legible, maker's marks are partly worn.
