Condition Report
In good overall condition, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Some minor tarnishing around the edge of the compact, remnants of powder visible to the interior, case shuts fully flush. The caddy spoon appears slightly mis-shapen to the stem, minor dent to one corner of the bowl, definite signs of solder repair across the shoulder join with some loss of definition to the stippled decoration. The silver mounted comb has some sections of the bristles missing. Hallmarks rubbed in places but majority clear and legible.
