Condition Report
Both snuffers display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with their age and use. The larger example displays several small dints, nicks and creases in the metal throughout. The hallmarks on this snuffer are very distorted and difficult to read. The hallmarks on the smaller example are clearer.
