Condition Report
The tea service displays some general surface scratches, marks and wear commensurate with the age and use. Some quite heavy tarnishing is visible throughout and all the pieces would benefit from a clean and polish. Some small surface dints and bumps including a couple of heavier ones to the hot water pot lid. Hinged lids are a little loose but appear in working order. One of the insulators to the teapot handle is broken. Handles are possibly filled. The struck marks are legible.
