Overall, the silver is in good condition considering the use it must have had over the last 100 years. As such, it does have light surface scratching commensurate with age and a number of small dinks at each end, perhaps reflecting how much use it has had since being made just after the conclusion of the First World War. The fabric is not original, but hand dyed velvet, and silk.
