Small tableware items such as a cream jug, sugar bowl, and salt and pepper shakers are also present.
Condition report:
The collection is in good display condition overall. Minor surface wear and light scratches consistent with age and use are visible on several pieces (photo 1). Some cloudiness and mineral deposits are present on the interior of the clear glass decanters (photo 2). Fine nicks or flea bites, common in large cut glass lots, may be present but are not individually prominent in the overview images. One of the stemmed glasses shows a minor irregularity at the rim (photo 6).
