The bases are "loaded". This is common with candlesticks where a heavier infill is added to the base in order to increase stability and to prevent them toppling over for obvious safety reasons.

They measure approx. 7 1/4" inches (185mm) in height, the bases 3 1/2" inches (90mm) square.

They are in reasonably good overall condition, but do have some imperfections There are dents around the rim of the base and one of them has some of the base infill missing from a corner on the underneath. Also one of the sconces has a number of indents.
