Condition
The illustration of the catalogue is accurate but the candelabra are less orange in reality. Good overall condition with minute chips and surface scratches to the white marble bases. The chains of one bases are missing. The pair of candelabra has been drilled and fitted for electricity, and each base has been fitted with big screws, so that the candelabra can be supported by a console. Please note that we do not guarantee that the electrical system is in working order, it has to be checked by a professional electrician.
