Property from the Fred and Kay Krehbiel Collection, Part III

Both appearing in sturdy and usable condition. The candlesticks separate into two pieces with the section above the drip pan fitting into the candlestick below. One candlestick exhibits a crack through a section at the very top and a chip. There is discoloration along the break possibly the result of an old glue repair. There is a chip in the lower potion of one candlestick, just beneath the drip pan, not immediately noticeable. The other candlestick has cracked and chipped sections at the top which have been secured in place with tape. There are cracks to one drip pan which have been previously repaired. Examination under UV light reveals an area of restoration to the lower section of one candlestick below the drip pan as well as restoration to the underside of one drip pan in a few sections. Additional images available upon request.
