Condition Report
All the candlesticks display general surface scratches, marks and wear commensurate with the age and use. Heavy tarnishing is visible and they would all benefit from a clean and polish. On one of the candelabra, a repair is visible around the base of the central column. Some rounding of edges and slight loss of detail to raised decoration. One underside with very loose piece of baize, the other with new piece fitted. The pair of candlesticks are in poorer condition with various dints, bumps and repairs and a circular piece has broken off on one of the sticks.
