Condition Report
Both spoons display general wear, tarnishing, surface marks and scratches commensurate with age and use. Some holes are visible in the embossed decoration of the bowls. The bowls were likely once gilded but this is now faded. File marks visible to the tip of the terminal on one of the spoons. The stem on the other spoon appears thinner on one side towards the tip and it looks a little ground down. The hallmarks are rubbed and distorted but mostly legible.
