Condition
Overall Condition: Good. All pieces in good condition with wear commensurate with age. The French jam jar has a compression dent on the domed lid around the finial. The mustard pot has some scattered dings and bumps on the body. The feet of the waiter have visible silver solder on the underside, indicating that they may be a later replacement. All three feet all bent slightly inward, standing on their "toes"; this could be easily repaired. The grape shears have some loss to the gilding at the highest areas of relief. All pieces marked with the full set of appropriate marks as corresponds with the catalogue description; all marks excellent except for those on the mustard pot, which are rubbed.
