More Information

It appears the the covers of the teapot and coffee pot may have been detachable at some point, but they are now stuck.

Teapot, coffee pot, sucrier and milk jug all show mild to moderate denting (most is concentrated around the covers of the teapot and coffee pot), and all show signs of general scratching and wear commensurate with use. Sucrier and milk jug show areas of thickening around the handles which could indicate solder repair (see pictures). No signs of obvious splitting or other major damage.

Tray appears to be in good order. Some light denting to the borders, and moderate scratching and signs of wear all over, but no splitting or signs of repair.
