Two Arm Ormolu and Cut Glass Regency Candle Luster on Blue John Base

About the Item

This late 19th century two-arm luster made from cut glass and ormolu has the further dramatic element of a black and white marble base set under a fine Blue John plinth. The rare stone blue john was used extensively by English craftsmen during the late 18th and early 19th centuries utilizing a stone found only in one region of that country. The cut glass is in very good condition and has no damage. The gilding is in very good shape as well
