Thisstyle more accurately date them to c1780-1785. They have been beautifullybright cut very... unusually with flowers in their arm cartouches (I've not seen this design before) and are engraved with the initials AL to their bow. They are in super conditionbeing free from dings splits and repairs. Both arms are perfectly straight andhighly sprung.
