Condition Report
- All spoons displaying some general surface wear, marks, scratches and tarnishing commensurate with their age and use.
- With some surface dints and bumps and slightly heavier wear to the bowls, but they have generally faired quite well and mostly retained their shape.
- Rat-tails to heels have retained much of their definition.
- The heel decoration on the other spoon is more heavily rubbed with significant loss of detail.
- Hallmarks are a little squashed and distorted but mostly legible.
