Condition Report:
Irish pepper can: Some dents to the body and underside. Hibernia mark to the inside the top of the detachable lid - this accounts for the irregular piercing pattern on the top.
Baluster pepperette: engraved initials inside the foot differ from those on the side of the body. Strange construction of the top - see images.
Partly fluted pepperette: Foot is slightly pushed in and has one or two dents to the rim. Otherwise slight wear.
Undecorated pepperette: Is unmarked. The foot looks to be slightly pushed in. Piercing to the detachable cover is a little irregular.
