Condition Report
In overall good condition, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Heavier tarnish marks around and beneath the base of the chocolate pot, remnants of polish and dirt to the interior. The caster does not appear to open but sounds like something is inside. The footed base of the tyg is slightly compressed. Hallmarks slightly rubbed but still legible.
