Condition Report
Initialled underneath EB. The detachable nozzles are numbered 1,2,3 and 4, the candlesticks themselves do not appear to be numbered, the engraved decoration around the border of the drip pans does not look to be of the period of the hallmark. There is a repair to the top of one candlestick at the top of the ball, below the drip pan. Two of the drip pans have lion passant marks within, the other two are not marked. All are stable on their feet and we would consider them fit for purpose.
