Condition Report
All the pieces display expected general tarnishing, surface wear, marks and scratches commensurate with age and use. Numerous pitting marks to the bowls of the two ladles and a couple of minor surface bumps and dints. The teaspoons and sugar tongs appear in fairly good overall condition. The bowl of the Victorian spoon appears quite thin especially towards the tip and there are also some surface bumps. The fork tines are a little uneven in length but are still fairly sharp. This section could be a replacement for the original as it is not hallmarked? The hallmarks on the other pieces are mostly clear and legible.
