AN ELEGANT PAIR OF REGENCY OVAL LUSTRES
REF: FA1496
This elegant pair of Regency cut-glass lustres captures the timeless glamour of early 19th-century design. Each piece is raised on a finely faceted, star-cut oval base that supports a beautifully proportioned baluster stem, crafted from clear glass with precise, hand-cut detailing.
A graceful arrangement of gilt brass sprays extends outward, creating a delicate canopy from which cascades an array of sparkling arrow head icicle drops, alternating in layered tiers, forming a striking waterfall effect that reflects and refracts candlelight with enchanting brilliance.
The lustres are crowned with a simple yet refined step cut candle nozzle, allowing the warm glow of the flame to play against the shimmering crystal. Perfectly balanced in form and detail, this pair exemplifies the opulence and sophistication of Regency lighting, adding an air of refined luxury to any interior.
