Condition Report
In fair to good condition, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The grape scissors would benefit from a clean and polish, minor wear to the Mappin & Webb retailer's box. One of the Dutch spoons has a sign of repair to the back of the heel with a flood of solder visible and repair join to the interior bowl, one spoon is longer in length. The thimble has a hole to the top and is numbered '7'. Hallmarks clear and legible on scissors, one of the single sword marks on the Dutch spoons is partly distorted.
