A superb example of a pair of solid Sterling Silver candlesticks with their original sconces. They are a stylish rococo design with faint engraved initials in a circle on the foot of each.
They are excellent quality and are cast silver, not weighted, and the pair weighs 1005g.
They are each clearly hallmarked on the base for London, 1727. The maker's mark is worn on both but I believe them to be by James Gould.
They are in very good condition for their age. There are some faint surface marks and some minor dings commensurate with age but nothing detrimental and no major damages. There is a small split in the edge of one sconce (see photo) and a few small dents around the inside. They have been gently cleaned and polished and are ready for use.
