Condition Report
All items in the lot displaying some quite heavy tarnishing and would benefit from a clean and polish. All with some general surface wear, marks and scratches. Minor dints and bumps. One of the photograph frames is in poorer condition showing heavier dents and the mount is missing fixing pins and is therefore loose. The christening mug is personally engraved to underside 'Born June 26th 1864'. Some rubbing to hallmarks but all are mostly clear and legible.
