All four items displaying some general wear, tarnishing, surface marks and scratches. The hinges to both stamp cases appear in working order. The engraved example is slightly compressed to the centre and the plain case is heavily tarnished with a couple of minor dints. The lid of the scent bottle has a dint to one side. Nibbles to glass and still containing substance. Some rubbing and distortion to hallmarks but mostly legible.
