Good overall condition. The two sconces with some surface scratch, a few slight oxidizing stains and wear at the silver at the base of the in-relief design on one of the two. Scratches and oxidizing stains on the "arms" and on top part. The alabaster are originals and less white than they appear on the catalogue's illustration. One of the two is cracked and has burn stains in the inner part. The second one has been restored.
