Condition Report
- Both cups displaying some general surface wear, marks, scratches and tarnishing commensurate with their age and use
- Residues of dried polish to some areas and crevices
- Surface wear and rubbing to areas of the decoration, causing some slight loss of detail or definition, but overall remains bright and in good order
- On one of the cups, the foot is slightly compressed into the base; consequently this cup now appears a few millimetres shorter than the other, especially on one side. Height to rim varies from 10cm to 9.5cm on lowest side
- Both lids appear with many bashes around the inner rims, more so on one example, which also shows some slight knocks around the main rim
- In spite of the damage, both lids do fit fairly well inside the rims of the main body
- Both cups fully hallmarked to bodies and lids and all are clear and legible
- Also with maker's name and address to each base
- Condition reports are offered as a guide only and we highly recommend inspecting any lot to satisfy yourself as to its condition.
