Condition Report
All the spoons appear in fairly good overall condition, displaying some general wear, tarnishing, surface marks and scratches, all in keeping with their age and general use. Slightly heavier wear to the bowls of the Chinese spoons but they have still faired well. Rubbing to some of the marks but still legible. With a fitted case although the Chinese spoons are too big to fit.
