Purchasing information
    Overall the candlesticks are in good condition, much of the wear is in keeping with the age and use, there are scratches, marks, spots and areas of tarnishing. There is also some pitting to the surface of the silver, the seam to the central column has become visible. The inserts to the nozzles are no longer circular, being a little bent out if shape. The hallmarks are part rubbed in places but legible.
