Both scoops appear in fairly good overall condition, displaying some tarnishing and general wear with surface scratches, marks and nicks.

Some slightly heavier wear around edges, which appear thinner in places. Minor nick to the rim at the tip of the larger bowl of the later scoop.

Some rubbing to hallmarks but mostly legible. Maker's mark on later example almost completely worn away with only traces remaining.
