Condition Report

The spoons:

In overall excellent condition for their 110 year age, with scratches and tarnish marks consistent with age, however no dents or significant wear, a fine example.

The box:

The original fitted box is overall very good condition with a lovely purple velvet and satin interior however the clasp does not completely close firm (flush) but still holds the spoons safely and securely. There is noticeable wear to the base of the box with a very slight rip and remnants of a sticker and general age related wear all round, but a clean, presentable box overall. Please see the above photographs as this forms part of the condition report.
