AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Magnificent heavy cast antique silver candlesticks. A pair of George II candlesticks (George II 1727 - 1760).
Highly decorated, still very crisp detail.

These candle holder have baluster bodies, with four-shell bases design, and removable nozzles. Masterpiece!
From the time of Mozart, Friedrich Händel, James Cook, George Washington and the VOC.

Made in London, 1760
Made by William Cafe
Fully English hallmarked for sterling 925 silver. Scones unmarked.

The dimensions of this fine pair of hand-made antique silver candlesticks are:
Length 15 cm
Wide at base 10.9 x 10.9 cm
Approx. 407 + 403 = 810 grams / 26.1 troy ounces / oz (bobèches weigh 131 grams together).

Condition: These antique cast silver candlesticks are a magnificent gauge of silver, magnificent quality and in exceptional presentation condition. The cast ornamentation is all very sharp and the hallmarks crisp.

Fun fact: underneath the scone and in the top of the candlestick where the scone goes into the socket, there are either 1 or 2 very tiny chips been taken out of the silver by the silversmith at that time. So you know which scones belongs to which candlestick holder.
