In fair to good condition, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. All suspension loops present, strikers more worn on the George V examples, all hinges appear in working order and shut fully. Two with initialled cartouches, minor loss of definition to the decoration across all items. Retailers mark for Mappin & Webb Regent St clipped on plain example. Hallmarks worn but mostly clear and legible, apart from maker's marks on the Edwardian examples which are indistinct.
