With typical surface scratching and some wear noted throughout, commensurate with use. Some areas show more signs of use than others. Areas of bending noted largely to the salad forks. One salad fork shows pronounced bending and areas of considerable gouges, scratches, roughness, and surface wear along the handle, likely consistent with grating from impact with other metal. Scattered, occasional surface residue throughout, particularly to one soup spoon. Watermarks and tarnish present, but can be polished if desired.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
