Condition Report
In varied state, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. The three vases test between 82-90% silver. The vase marked '90' has a creased base and appears to tilt on its stem. The other vase with the wavy rim also appears to tilt on its stem and has a mis-shaped rim. The silver handled cutlery have signs of repair/damage around the handle joins, signs of Verdigris to the base metal components and loss of definition to the silver handles. The bowling spoons are engraved 'B B C'. Some of the other loose spoons have engraved initials and names to the terminals or bowls. All pieces would benefit from a clean and polish. Majority of hallmarks clear and legible.
