Condition
Overall in very good original condition. This service presents with evidence of very gentle use, including a few small and minor surface scratches scattered throughout. This set is distinguished by its intricately hand-hammered surfaces, which provide an artistic, sculptural aesthetic. When viewed in person the hand-hammering is more beautifully nuanced and varied than seen in the catalogue illustration. The set does not include a storage box. A service for twelve with great sculptural effect and attention to function.
