This is a wonderful vintage set of sterling demitasse spoons with various Japanese emblems on the tops like a fan, hut, japanese sandal, pagoda, Buddha, abbacus with tiny parts that move, "see no evil"/monkeys, and a rickshaw whose wheels turn, plus others. They are marked STERLING. I see no damage but they may need to be polished. I will leave that to the discretion of the new owner. I believe these are from around 1940s. They are in the original box (which is in a little rough shape but is still very cool) from the Imperial Hotel Arcade in Tokyo. This hotel was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in the 1920s. T is also a name which I believe says Okuba Bros on the box interior. These are very special wonderful demitasse spoons. T are 12 different ones and every one is in near perfect condition--just need a touch of polish. Good luck with your bids! Good luck and I do combine!
