The spoons appear in fair overall condition, all displaying some general wear, surface scratches, marks and tarnishing in keeping with the age and use. Some heavier wear around edges and tips of the bowls with the metal appearing a little thinner in places but they have generally faired well. On the Bateman pair, one bowl is gilded to both sides but the other is only gilded to the front and this is faded. The hallmarks are clear and legible, some of the maker's marks appear rubbed.
