The lot is quite tarnished throughout and would benefit from a clean and polish. Some black stain patches to underside of kettle. Otherwise it appears in fairly good overall condition, displaying general surface wear, marks and scratches commensurate with age and use. A few minor surface dints and bumps. Hinges to handle are a little loose. Likely repair to one of the reeded supports of the stand, a repair line is visible and a small piece added to reverse. The burner displays heavier wear with splits around the rim join and very heavy tarnishing around the wick holders. Hinges of lids are also very loose. Full hallmarks located to underside of kettle, these are quite worn and date letter partly obscured. Clear and legible full hallmarks to burner and part hallmarks to stand. Lid with part hallmarks, legible but maker's mark partly worn.
