Condition
The illustration is accurate. Good overall condition despite the inevitable scratches and marks due to age and handling.
The gilding is slightly tarnished and rubbed as expected. The top of the stem is fitted with an electrical fitting as these candelabra were used as lamps. This electrical fitting has been erased on the catalogue illustration and it can be easily removed.
