Refined pair of 19th-century Bohemian dessert plates made of fine clear glass and richly decorated with hand-applied gold and deep cobalt-blue medallions.
Each plate features elegant floral motifs framed by gilded garlands, complemented by a central sunburst design. The delicate loop handles and luminous gold decoration are characteristic of high-quality Bohemian glass from the late 19th century.
These pieces were originally intended for serving desserts or sweets and today make a beautiful addition to a display cabinet or an antique table setting.

(The photographs form an integral part of the description.)
A well-placed antique does more than decorate a room - it gives it authorship. Against a contemporary interior, older objects introduce texture, balance and a sense of permanence that cannot be replicated by newly made pieces alone.
This is the principle behind the LÜRON selection. We look for works that carry historical character with ease, and that feel as convincing in a Paris apartment as they do in a more modern architectural setting.
