Purchasing information
    The candelabrum appears in good overall condition, displaying some general light tarnishing, surface wear, marks and scratches. A few minor dints. Also some pitting marks and nicks are visible to the base and on one side there is an area of heavier damage showing a couple of holes in the metal. Possibly caused by the removal of a crest or monogram engraving? Hallmarks to the base are quite rubbed and worn. Also hallmarked to various removable parts and these appear rubbed but mostly legible. Chains are base metal. To be sold with a photograph print of the item.
