Description
The single-flame silver chandelier stands on a round base with stepped edges. A decoration of winding folds runs over the edges. The bell-shaped intermediate piece placed on the foot supports the shaft, which is shaped like an inverted baluster and has twisted features. The spout resting on top is spherical in its lower part and then slightly retracted over a profiled rod. At the upper edge it swings out again slightly in a bulbous edge. Beaded edge, dotted inscription in italics on the foot rim/edge: "J. M. M. F. H. d 26 August Ao 1778"
