Condition Report
All three items displaying some tarnish and surface wear, marks and scratches commensurate with age and use. Some heavier wear around edges. General surface nicks and a few minor dints. The Chester scoop has a likely repair to the lower end of the narrow scoop. The bowl of the marrow spoon appears quite narrow, metal feels thinner towards the tip, also heavier wear and rubbing to the tip of the scoop section. Rubbing to hallmarks and some appear squashed or partly distorted, mainly on the marrow spoon, but mostly legible.
