Size : each measures 2 ¾ inches high; total weight of silver 108 grams

Condition : In excellent condition with no dings, dents or damage to the silver; silver is bright and shiny with a lovely patina; hallmarks are strong but do have build up around them; the blue glass inserts are in great condition with no chips or cracks except for a underside rim chip near the upper part of one that given the thickness of the glass could be ground out; glass is clear and shiny. Please use photographs as part of the condition statement
