The Swiss carvers of the Black Forest were incredibly talented. Very good to excellent condition, you can see that there are very few imperfections - a very tip of a beak, but all the wings are superb and perhaps a leaf tip, but not much to detract from value or appeal. They are 8.5 tall, the opening will work for a normal tall taper candle. The base is sturdy in support, at 5.25" x 3" oval. You could certainly make these into end table lamps, as well.
I've made several sets for my own homes. This pair came home with me from France last trip. We're easy to deal with. Our fine inventory is very important. And your ranking of our performance is also very important!
