Purchasing information-
Both candlesticks appear in fairly good overall condition, displaying some general tarnishing and surface wear, marks and scratches commensurate with the age and use. Some minor dints and bumps. Seam lines visible to both. Some general surface wear and rubbing to engraved armorials. Both candlesticks have wood bases and on one stick there is a large chunk missing. On this same candlestick, the top of the socket is compressed and at a slight angle. One of the removable nozzles is also quite knocked displaying dints and creases in the metal. There also appear to be no visible hallmarks on this nozzle. Some rubbing and distortion to other hallmarks but mostly legible.
