The first stick was made in London in 1712 of purer Britannia standard silver by William Twell was probably used as the casting pattern for the other-you can see where the old hallmarks have been filled- which was cast by the specialist Candlestick maker James Gould in 1730. They are engraved with original coat of arms. they weigh 28 troy ounces (871 grams).
