A most attractive Pair of Late 19th Century Antique English Victorian Ruby Glass Candle Lustres, complete with their original cranberry glass storm shades. One shade has lost it's brass collar, notwithstanding which it sits steadily in it's lustre, and thus does not in any way detract from the appearance of the assembled unit. The moulded candle lustres of dark ruby coloured glass heightened with enamelling and gilding each retaining it's full complement of clear cut-glass spears. The cranberry shades, fading to clear at their bases, with gently scalloped tops.
