Good condition considering how old the set is. I am guessing that it is from the second half of the 19th century. Very beautiful guilloche. Both pieces are very well hallmarked. There is some wear to the silver plating on the back of the tray. This is referenced in the second to last photo. I do not see any missing bristles and the wood on the brush still lusters. I do not know much about silver other than I acquired this about 25 years ago because it was beautiful. If there is any information that you might have to share about this piece please advise. Please contact if you have any questions.
