Condition
Overall in very good original condition. These goblets are truly dynamic and deeply sculptural design. The silver-plated surface with some very light rubbing, discoloration and a few light surface scratches consistent with use and gentle handling. There are a few very minute edge nicks to the top rim of two of the cups. Two of the cups in this lot are very slightly askew. The interior with light surface dirt from gentle use and age. A rare opportunity to acquired such a large set of this rare and iconic design.
