I recently picked up this incredible pair of Medusa Head Figural Candlesticks. I believe they are some grade of Silver, 750 or higher I am guessing but I can not identify the Hallmarks. Could anyone please help ? Thanks :)

Can you post the marks of both candlesticks?
Maybe from two indecipherables you can get a decipherable one.....
