Condition
Overall in very good condition. The surfaces with minor surface scratches and scattered abrasions concentrated to the edges, not visually distracting and consistent with age and gentle use. The inside of the spoon with a slightly deeper scratch measuring approximately ⅛ inch in length. The moonstone with minor surface scratches, not visually distracting and consistent with age and gentle use. A chic piece of silverware that combines naturalistic and Secessionist forms.
