Condition Report
In very good condition. All candle arms are stable and usable. Faint scuffs to the surface from occasional polishing, but the silver is generally bright and reflective; the pair presents very attractively. No cracks or losses to the hardstone accents. Some polish residue to recessed areas and wax drips to candle cup interiors.
