Condition Report
Varying condition, all the pieces display some tarnishing, surface wear, marks and scratches. Some heavier wear around the edge and tip of the fish blade and to the tips of the fork tines, which are slightly uneven in length. The teaspoon bowls have generally faired quite well but there is a repair to the stem of the sugar tongs. The blade of the cheese knife is turned upwards and there is some quite heavy tarnish to the handle. The glass of the magnifying glass is coming out of the mount on one side. The bottle opener is also marked 'HH?90' and impressed Holland.
