Both stands bare the usual minor knocks and scuffs overall consistent with age and use. There is a split to the underside of one platform where it meets the stem. The guilt metal collars have been lacquered at some point and are rubbed overall. One lobbed stand is split from top to bottom. This appears to be perfectly stable with no movement. The mechanisms operate cleanly. Both stands have wrought iron strengthening brackets to the undersides. Otherwise good condition overall.
