Heavy patina with worn gilt throughout revealing bronze-like color. Enough so that there was consideration if the set is bronze with gold gilt. One rim in particular is bent, some other small indentations on the base. Please see photos for up close views.

Although designed for church altars, they are quite suitable to use as accents on side tables or on a formal dinner table.
