Condition Report
In overall good condition, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Signs of repair to the stem join to the bowl on the sifter spoon, with crude floods of solder and loss of definition. No glass liner for the mustard pot, its hinged lid does not shut fully flush and a minor bump to the body. Minor marks and scuffs to the case for the spoons. Majority of hallmarks clear and legible.
