Vintage Pair of Empire Sterling Weighted Taper Candle Holders with Gadroon Edge

This pair of taper candleholders are made of weighted sterling silver. This generally means that they are reinforced with cement making them heavier weighted in the base than a typical piece of sterling silver. They were made by Empire Silver. These 2 3/4" high candleholders have some signs of gentle wear including a few small dents around the outer edges. The base is 2 1/2" across.
