These antique silver menu holders are an exceptional gauge of silver, exceptional quality and in exceptional condition. The cast decoration to each piece is very sharp. There are some minor blemishes to the interior cover of the original box, however it can be considered to be in presentation condition in keeping with age. Full hallmarks struck to the surface of each base are all very clear.
Reflections in photographs may detract from the true representation of these pieces of antique silverware.
