拍品描述：
A NEOCLASSICAL ORMOLU-MOUNTED CRYSTAL AND GLASS EIGHT-BRANCH CHANDELIER
PRAGUE, LATE 18TH CENTURY
The vase coronet issuing branches joined by faceted swags, above a central dish and circlet issuing swags surmounted by diamond-shaped drops and suspending rings of ribbon-tied pendants, supported by four diamond-cut and bevelled columns with ormolu capitals, above a circlet decorated with overlapping arched motif issuing eight square-section branches hung with pendants, the circlet hung with rings of pendants and centred by a lobed dish with acorn boss, fitted for electricity, losses, replacements and restorations
47 ¼ in. (120 cm.) high; 36 in. (92 cm.) diameter
Private collection, from a Parisian apartment decorated by Daniel Pasgrimaud; sold Christie's, Paris, 30 November 2016, lot 31.
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.
