A pair of crystal dishes Two delightful sweet stands made with two half-naked cherubs in cast bronze and fire-gilded, standing on a circular base decorated with ribbed motifs and geometric engravings, resting on an octagonal base with a shaped apron.
The two half-naked cherubs have their hair adorned with crowns of vines and bunches of grapes, iconographic symbols of abundance and wealth, a belt with vine leaves on their stomachs and, with their arms raised, they hold a dodecagonal plate in cut crystal decorated with polychrome floral and geometric motifs and colored in shades of green, red, and blue.
One of the two has a small weld at the drapery.
On the base, these two 19th-century artifacts bear the inscription Austria, referring to their country of origin.
