A good example of a pair of antique Sterling Silver candlesticks. They are stylish and good quality pieces with scrolling floral detail around the bases and tops and a weighted base lined with green baize.
They are both hallmarked for Birmingham and the maker William Hutton & Sons Ltd. The date mark has worn but the style of the maker's mark helps to narrow the date down to between 1896 - 1908.
They are in good condition for their age. There are some light surface marks, knocks and signs of age and use and a few very fine splits around the base of one (see photos) but overall they display well. They have been gently cleaned and polished and are ready for use.
