Bidding ended. Lot has been sold.

There are the inevitable minor dents, marks, scratches and cracks consistent with age and use. The metalwork on both is dark, from accumulated dirt, and would benefit from a light clean. There is a plastic bag attached to one candelabrum, containing a few small pieces of flower porcelain, and a gilt bronze flower. 

The man's right hand is missing. The lady is in good condition. Both figures are loose, and sit on gilt metal pegs. 

The candelabra have been electro-gilded. They are well cast and chased.
