Condition
Overall in excellent condition. The patinated bronze surface with a few very minor surface scratches and abrasions, very gentle rubbing, and a few small traces of surface soiling. The candlesticks retain their original bobeches which are in beautiful condition. With a few small felt gliders on the undersides. A superb example of this rare iconic form.
