OVERALL CONDITION excellent, no repairs or erasures. The hallmarks are clear although the maker's (JO) is part rubbed. The bowl is particularly good with only very slight bumps. An original spoon, only lightly used and an extraordinary survivor. I cannot recommend this spoon for daily use, it is too good.
