Description from the seller

Mouchettes (wick cutters) SIGNED: The centerpiece of this set. These antique bronze scissors bear the artisan's signature [Presence of hand-engraved adjuster marks on the rings, typical of artisanal manufacture from the late 18th or early 19th century]. A guarantee of quality and rare authenticity on the market, with a perfectly smooth mechanism. Regency Style Candle Holder: An evergreen classic with a contoured shaft and a faceted base. Its density and weight attest to a high-quality bronze casting. Bell Snuffer: Featuring a long, balanced handle to extinguish your candles with distinction, without smoke or sparks.
