All three pieces display some tarnishing/staining and would benefit from a clean and polish. General surface wear, marks and scratches consistent with the age and use. Several dints and bumps. Some damage to the metal around the edge of the teapot spout. The hinged lid is also very loose as there is some damage to the hinges. Also some damage to fixing pins of handle. Some likely repairs. On the sugar bowl there is an oval patch just below the rim, either a repair or engraving removal? Engraved crests are very rubbed and worn. Some slight distortion but hallmarks are mainly clear and legible.
