These antique coasters are a very good gauge of silver, fine quality and in excellent presentation condition.

There is a minor surface chip to the corner of one mahogany base; this does not detract from the aesthetic appearance of these fine original coasters.

The pin struck and bright cut engraved decoration is all very crisp.

Full hallmarks struck to the surface of each coaster have wear; the nature of the coasters dictates the location of the hallmarks, resulting in their shallow struck nature and subsequent wear, in keeping with age. In this instance the hallmarks remain legible in keeping with age.

Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of these pieces of Georgian silverware.
