THE ELEGANT STEMS STAND TALL & STRAIGHT. WITH SMOOTH SIDES & TOPPED WITH BULBOUS SOCKETS.

BOTH HAVE A LITTLE COPPER BLEEDING THROUGH IN PLACES, AND THERE IS SOME LEAD SHOWING AT THE BORDERS.
ONE CANDLESTICK DOES LEAN A BIT, BUT IS NOT LOOSE AT ALL. BOTH SCONCES ARE IN THE SAME PATTERN & ONE IS ORIGINAL, THE OTHER IS MARGINALLY DIFFERENT.

HOWEVER, EACH STANDS VERY ELEGANTLY, AND BOTH ARE STRONG, STURDY & MAKE FOR A SUPERB MATCHING PAIR.
