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, the teapot, coffee pot, and kettle on lampstand with replaced composite insulators, the cartouches throughout currently blank, if previously engraved cleanly removed and not thin, the creamer and sugar bowl gilt, with some wear, the gilding to the creamer largely worn, the tray with some minor scuffs and scratches, probably with removed engraving to the center, though cleanly done, chased and engraved decoration throughout crisp, overall good condition.
