Good overall condition despite scattered scratches, marks, dents and chips with loss consistent with age and handling.
As said, the candelabra have been fitted for electricity. Please note that the electricity fitting has to be checked by a professional.

One candelabra structure is slightly twisted.
The cups on the top possibly with additionnal bronze elements, now missing (not distracting).
Highly decorative and attractive standing candelabra.
