Purchasing information-
All three pieces display some general wear, surface scratches, marks and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Some small dints and bumps. Flattening or loss of detail to some of the decoration. Likely repair or alteration to teapot finial. The handle is also very loose as there is some damage to the pins, which requires attention. Possible small solder repairs to sugar bowl and the feet are a little compressed. The hallmarks to the teapot are clear and legible, the hallmarks on the other pieces are quite rubbed but still legible.
