| CONDITION | good, hallmarks part rubbed, no splits, no repairs, the Bright-cut decoration is still crisp and the silver thick. I have only tickle polished so the item is nice and clean for use but the crispness of bright-cut decoration has not been compromised by a heavy wheel polish. Tickle polishing does not remove the millions of tiny surface marks that are a feature of old silver |
