The Victorian bonbon dish appears in good condition, there are general scratches, marks and tarnishing.

The hallmarks are clear and legible.
The smaller example appears bright and clean, general light scratches and tarnishing visible and looks to have been recently re-polished. There is a small split visible to the piercing. The hallmarks are clear and legible.
