Pair of antique Georgian period old Sheffield Plate telescopic candlesticks with removable wax drip pans.

Condition: Very good condition. Some copper bleed, as shown in the photos, although largely the silver plate is still in very nice order. The telescopic mechanisms are in good working order. (Twist anti-clockwise to extend and clockwise to lower). One mechanism is firmer to twist and stays firmly in place in the extended position. The other is looser but still stays extended. They have been cleaned, hand polished and are ready to use. 

The candles used in the photographs are the True Grace brand - the type with the tapered bottom and they fit well. (Not included).

No visible maker's marks.
