Purchasing information
    Overall the items within the lot display general scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Heavy tarnishing visible to some parts. Minor nibbles and chips to the blue glass liners, the glass liners to the open salts also differ slightly, one has a star cut base, the second plain. The beaker has a initial engraving to the silver rim. A number of the condiment spoons are in poor condition. There is some variance in the condition of the hallmarks but generally they appear to be clear and legible.
