Lovely pair of mid-19th Century, probably English, solid brass candlesticks, in "as is" condition. They are fairly soiled, show slight amount of superficial rust, one top piece shows an area of having been soldered (pictured), both have a few very minor scrapes, scratches, and little dings, one is missing the pushup. Still, these are in remarkably good condition for their age. Please note that they both stand straight and tall, and it is the tendency of our camera (or photographer) to photograph parallel items resulting in an unwanted slant. These sticks measure 10" tall, with 3-1/2" square base (actually 8-sided base if you consider the corners are clipped; the largest knop above is also 8-sided). Each inside base has a matching dab of brass where we believe a maker's mark was originally stamped, although we are unable to decipher it. With a little labor, these should shine beautifully again, but as we stated, they are being sold "AS IS," (as are all items in the Druey Lane catalog) with NO RETURN, NO EXCHANGE, and NO REFUND. About 1860. $15 US Shipping.
