Probably because she didn't put them in the dishwasher. The sherbet cups are in great condition, while most of the saucers have light scratches and scuffs or rubs where the gold has worn off. The only pieces of this large lot that were damaged beyond help were the coffee pot and matching sugar which had the finials broken off.
