Condition Report
In varied state, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. No personal engravings to the cartouche on the cigarette case, the case shuts fully flush. The chain on the embossed Whisky label is detached at one end, missing the suspension loop. One napkin ring has an engraved monogram to the cartouche, the other napkin ring is slightly squashed and has a small split to the rim. Minor bumps to the silver lid of the vanity pot. The magnifying glass has a base metal component with silver handle which has some losses to the decoration. Fellows cannot guarantee the pens are in working order. Majority of hallmarks clear and legible.
