Condition Report
Both bottles appear in fairly good overall condition, displaying some general wear, surface marks and scratches. The silver is a little tarnished and would benefit from a polish. Some slight flattening and loss of detail to areas of the decoration. The hinged lids to both are in working order, however the clasp closing mechanism is not working properly and would require attention. Some heavier contact marks to glass bases and a few chips to stoppers. The hallmarks are clear and legible, also part hallmarks to lids.
