The lid has one "flea ping" but very hard tosee unless you turn it in the light. The tray has some soft surface scratchesdue to the tureen sitting on it over the years but they are no deep scratches.Inside of the bowl is in very good shape.The outside lip of the tureen is very good condition but there isa ever so slight slope in a 1.5" length area of the lip.. You cannot see itbut if you run your fingers around the edge of the bowl you can feela very small impression in one area. Does not affect the lid and how itsits.Overall, there is some soft surface wear as expected dueto age but in good shape.. Could use a more thorough silver cleaning. Sanborns entered a new endeavor in the early 1920s, when Frank Sanborn found he could not locate a competent silversmith even though Mexico led the world in silver production. While another American, William Spratling, was reviving the art and craft of silverwork in Taxco, Sanborns stimulated the trade by using workmen to fashion silver to its own designs. By the early 1940s Sanborns annual sales volume from silverwork came to $250,000. Ten years later it was the biggest silver shop in Mexico.
