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.

In good overall condition. The ormolu with some minor surface scratches, slight casting inconsistencies, light oxidation and rubbing, as to be expected. The nozzles with some verdigris at their interiors. The candelabrum was previously adapted as an electric lamp, the lamp works now removed. As a result, the nozzle and bobeche at the central light sit atop the oil lamp-form element but are not fixed in place and appear to be lacking an element; the base has been weighted; there remains a small hole just above the foot at the back of the lowest section of the base. Overall good condition, ready to place.
