Description
Louis XIV style chandelier with a gilded bronze frame with 70 lights, decorated with Baccarat crystals by Baccara, Nancy
Provenance
Dresden Castle, Georg Building, 2nd floor Red Salon or Reception Salon; In inventory list no. 1 dated January 31, 1920, as part of the settlement agreement between the Free State of Saxony and the former royal house of 1924, a large bronze chandelier with glass pendants (electric) is listed for the Red Salon of the Georg Building, witch is marked with a red cross as room inventory belonging to the state; The exact date of removal is not on record, but the removal measures were completed in the summer of 1944. The chandelier from the Red Silk Room was probably transported to its relocation site at Rammenau Castle on April 26, 1944. Nothing is known about the circumstances surrounding the loss of this object.It is assumed that the object was lost in connection with the events of the Second World War.
