Pair of Victorian Ruby Cranberry Glass Lustres - Fine pair of Victorian ruby cranberry glass lustres, mid to late 19th century, each with a flared crimped rim above a baluster-form standard, the bowls decorated with gilt diamond reserves enclosing enameled floral motifs, and hung with faceted prism drops and spear-point pendants. The richly colored glass and elaborate cut crystal prisms exemplify the decorative brilliance of Victorian table garnitures, designed to refract light and enhance parlor display. 12.5 in H x 7 in D Condition: Minor wear to gilt decoration; scattered small chips to prisms; some replacement or later prisms possible; overall good presentation.
