Purchasing information-
In fair to good condition, the lot displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Both candlesticks appear to have taken a knock and tilt slightly, the 1911 example does not stand flat and wobbles because the loading has dropped, it is also missing its material lining to the base. Remnants of polish and dirt residue visible. The 1911 example has some signs of solder beneath the nozzle. Hallmarks clear and legible, partial hallmarks to the nozzles.
