Condition Report
Both candlesticks display general wear including surface scratching, marks and surface dints and nicks, all commensurate with the age and use. Some quite heavy tarnishing visible to both and they would benefit from a clean and polish. Slight damage to pierced capital on one of the candlesticks, a small section of a flower is missing. This same candlestick has an area of heavier dints to the base. Both with crudely engraved initials around the base rims. The hallmarks are clear and legible, slight distortion to maker's mark but still legible.
