The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.

These candelabra present well overall.
The gilt and patinated surface with some rubbing and wear, as to be expected with age and handling. The ormolu with light tarnish. The crevices with traces of polish residue.
One vase with one arm which could benefit from being resecured as could the vase on its base.
The lighting fitments issuing from the top of the vases are not drilled and can be easily removed from vases.
Electrical components have not been tested, and should be examined by a qualified electrician prior to any intended use.
