MARK OF MERGULHAO, PORTO, AFTER 1938

The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

Overall with some minor scuffs and scratches consistent with age and use, all stamped MERGULHAO / LISBOA and numbered 916 and with Portuguese control marks for first and second standard, the forks with some tines not quite straight and even and with some wear and minor bends to the ends of some tines, the dinner and luncheon knives with hollow handles and stainless steel blades, two dinner knives and five luncheon knives with blades slightly loose but secure, one dinner knife with the blade out of alignment from the handle but not loose, generally good condition.
