Condition Report
All pieces displaying general surface wear, marks and scratches commensurate with age and use and some tarnishing to silver and plated parts. Edwardian holder with a few minor dints, a couple of breaks in pierced decoration and seam repair. Hallmarks are clear and legible. Glass bottle with large rim chip. Stopper is probably not the original, it has an unmarked floral metal mount. The silver mounts on the pair of bottles are quite tarnished and one with several little dints and bumps around the rim. Hallmarks rubbed and maker's marks worn. Some edge and rim nibbles to glass. Plated stand would benefit from a polish.
