~ Pair Of Short Birmingham Silver Candlesticks c1968 ~
A classic pair of short silver candlesticks dating to 1968.
The candlesticks are of baluster form and have weighted bases.
They are quite plain with no decoration.
The candlesticks are both fully hallmarked for silver. The hallmarks are rather worn but between the two we can make out that the marks are for Birmingham, 1968 and were made by ‘W. I. Broadway & Co’.
~ Dimensions ~
The candlesticks each have a base diameter of 6.5cm (2 ⅝ inches) and a height of 10cm (4 inches).
Together they weigh 265g.
~ Condition ~
One of the candlesticks has a couple of small dings to the base edge, the other has several small dings to the base edge and one to the top edge of the piece, or bobeche.
Aside from these small superficial marks the candlesticks are otherwise in a very nice condition with only general light surface wear but no damage.
