I found these amazing candlesticks in a small antique store when I was living in Scotland years ago. I've owned them for over 40 years and they have lit my dinner table over many many meals. I am downsizing and they just do not fit in with my current home. I'm hoping to re-home them and give you a rare opportunity to own this gorgeous set of Victorian candlesticks in pristine condition. A stunning conversation piece that combines historical significance with practical elegance. See less
