Condition
**In generally good condition with the expected minor scuffs and dings associated with age and use. One of the Hayne cellars has a 4mm circular dent on one corner of the body, and the other has some minor black spotting on the interior. All four show some mellowing to the gilding, more so on the Hayne pair. No monograms/crests or removals. Each piece fully hallmarked, the Story & Elliott pair on the short side (worn but legible; one maker's mark double-struck), the Hayne pair on the underside (clean, additionally marked "1612" and "1613").
