Purchasing information
    Much of the wear is in keeping upon the age and use of the tea service, with general scratches, marks and quite heavy tarnishing, there are some dints and pits over the surface of the silver. The teapot allows some sideways movement . The cartouche are currently vacant, but possibly have had an engraving removed, although the silver does not feel any thinner to this area.
