Purchasing information-
Both pieces display some tarnishing and general surface wear, marks and scratches. Would benefit from a clean and polish. Some heavier wear around the edge of the bowl but it has generally faired quite well. Also some heavier wear to the tips of the fork prongs and they have lost some of their sharpness. There is also a visible seam line around the stem of the fork, towards the bottom. There are some stippled marks to the top of the stem of the spoon, possibly some writing. Appear unmarked. Bowl of spoon tests as 89% silver.
