Description
These candlesticks are so practical but cool in how ornate they are. I think they are kind of gothic since I've left them unpolished and you can see the copper coming through. I brought too much stuff from NJ for my move to Florida, so I am parting with these.With the bobeche, they are 8-1/4" tall. The base is 4-1/2" square.
The design is very ornate, with repousse design on the base, the tiers as well as on the bobeche. The bottom has old, green velvet. I have not disturbed it to look for a mark. There are marks on the bobeche. On the inside, there is an "H." On the bottom, there are three stars.
Condition:
Copper is coming through, especially on one of the candlesticks which must have been polished more.
I have not polished the candlesticks. Frankly, I really love the design with the dark look.
There are no obvious marks to the silver, but that may not be the case when polished.
There is some silver polish still in the deep recesses.
So, these are not bright and pretty candlesticks. They are, however, very unique
