拍品專文

This striking chandelier of architectural form and costly Bohemian cut-glass relates closely to a late 18th-century design for a chandelier from a Prague workshop, probably the maker of this example. The highly sophisticated combination of faceted cut-glass and architectural gilt-metal elements make this a rare survival of neoclassical production from the Bohemian glass manufactories.
