Condition
Overall very good condition. Each candlestick with scattered minor surface scratches consistent with age and gentle handling, minute air bubbles and particulate inclusions inherent in the making, and with scattered areas of candle wax residue. One candlestick (pictured on the left in the catalogue illustration) with a small accumulation of wax within the column of the candlestick at approximately one-third height.. Together the candlesticks present with very harmonious and complementary iridescence and beautifully executed ribbing.
