Condition Report
Both items display general surface scratches, marks and wear commensurate with the age and use. There is some quite heavy tarnishing to the silver mounts and they would benefit from a clean and polish. Some green tarnishing visible to the figures and they appear to be unmarked. The cork is loose on one of the stoppers. One of the spoon bowls displays more wear to the tip. Some slight rubbing to hallmarks but they are still legible. Spoons are also hallmarked along the stem, a little squashed. Large chip to the glass on the underside of one of them.
