Purchasing information-
In varied state, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Noticeable dents around the bottom of the hot water pot, dirt residue to the interior, the tip of the spout is creased inwards, the hinged lid does not lie completely flat, visible signs of repair around the top handle join. Some black residue to the base rim of the cream jug. The circular base of the mug has been completely compressed in to one side more than the other so it no longer appears raised and instead slants, this has caused the piece to split visible from beneath, requires attention, the handles are also compressed into the body with visible repairs around the joins, it is engraved 'Gordon Craven Griffiths July 26th 1905 from R. C. Perry'. Some signs of Verdigris to the German dish, it is marked 800 alongside the reichsmark and possible maker's mark. The smaller napkin ring appears slightly mis-shaped, the larger is engraved with the number 2. The unmarked beaker has multiple dents around the base. Most pieces would benefit from a clean and polish. Hallmarks clear and legible.
