Vintage Sterling Silver Candlesticks
Vintage Sterling Silver Candlesticks Click image to enlarge Description These candlesticks are made from sterling silver although the bases and stems have been filled to provide support and stability. The sticks have two knops to the st...ems and stand on sloped circular bases with reeded detail around the tops. ** Please see the condition report below **. The sconces are fixed and will accommodate candles measuring up to 2.2cm (0.8”) in diameter. The bases are covered in green felt. Both are hallmarked for Birmingham 1964 with the maker’s mark of Cohen & Charles.
Although the sticks are nice and vertical and fully usable, there are some issues to bring to your attention. One stick has clearly had a knock to the top of the sconce which has resulted in two raised creases to the underside and the sconce edge tilting downward to one side. However, the creases are quite hidden, the slope isn’t highly noticeable and the inner reservoir still holds a candle vertically. The same stick has a pea-sized dent, 2 light 5mm long bruises and a dint to the top of the foot and some small dints and dinks around the edge of the foot. The other stick has a very slightly raised crease where the stem meets the base (not very noticeable), 4 very light bruises and a dint to the top of the base. Around the edge of the base, there is a 2cm long bruise (flattening) and some dints and dinks. The material to the bottom of the bases is sound but very stained with silver polish. I’ve tried to show all aspects in the photos below and they are reflected in the asking price for what are still an attractive and functional pair of candlesticks.

Buyers who wish to collect in person may pay in advance through Paypal or in cash upon collection. Shipping I endeavour to ship items within 2 working days of cleared payment. All packages are sent by Royal Mail Signed-For service and have adequate insurance built in to the postage cost. I do not make any profit on postage/insurance costs and don?t charge for packaging. To ensure items are safe in transit, I package them very well and, unfortunately, this does increase mailing costs somewhat. All packages must be signed for upon receipt.

Any Import Duties, Taxes and other charges due on International purchases are the sole responsibility of the buyer.

Terms of Sale My aim is to try to ensure that items I sell fully meet the buyer's expectation and, for this reason, I provide photos of all aspects of items on sale and give a very detailed written description and condition report. PLEASE NOTE that all items sold are used and are either Antique or Vintage which means there will be some very light surface abrasions caused through cleaning and use.If a buyer purchases an item and it does not match its description or photos, I will give a no quibble refund for the cost of the item and the shipping costs incurred. If, however, a buyer changes his/her mind about a purchase, then he/she may also return it for a full refund of the item's cost but the outward and return shipping costs will be the responsibility of the buyer.Should you wish to return an item, please contact me as soon as possible after receiving it. To qualify for a refund, Items must be returned to the seller within 14 days of the date of receipt. Return postage must be by the same, secure method as that originally used to dispatch the item to the buyer which will normally be a Signed-For Mail Service with adequate compensation included. Once I have safely received the item and checked that it is unused and in the same condition as it was when it was originally dispatched, the relevant refund will be made to the buyer's Paypal account. About Us I source and re-home high quality antique and vintage silver at wholesale prices. On the odd occasion, I come across something that might have had a bit of a rough life but deserves a second chance rather than being consigned to the melting pot. In all cases, because buyers are purchasing from a distance, I always provide in-depth condition reports and multiple high-magnification images in my listings to give you as much information as possible. Through selling online, I maintain low overheads and try to set 'Buy It Now' prices at a lower rate than those charged by most antique shops and fairs.
I am very passionate about the pieces I sell and am most happy when they go to a new home where they'll be fully appreciated. Contact Us If you have any questions whatsoever about an item I am selling, please feel free to contact me at [email protected] and I will be more than happy to answer them.
