As is, see pictures and ask questions. These were purchased from an estate sale. I know nothing about them. I am not sure if the cloth holders originally came with this set. There are 40 pieces with the stamp "Thailand " on the back, 5 pieces do not. I am not positive if these are brass or very tarnished silver. They look brass. I do apologize I was wearing a pink shirt when taking the photos. The purple cloth holders all have fading or stains. I have not washed or tried polishing the items.
