Condition
in overall good conserved condition. This is beautiful in reality and probably dates to around the mid 19th centuryThere are some minor breaks and losses to some of the glass sections on the candlearms. The finial is possibly a later replacement. Some minor chips generally which are not too noticeable. On the top tier, one foliate spray is missing and has been replaced by a flower on a stem. On the lower tier one flower on a stem and one leaf on a stem are missing but this is only visible when viewed from above not when hanging and one scrolled acanthus leaf has been broken and reglued and would benefit from some further minor attention.
