Four silver candelabras, four lighting outlets each.
Provenance
Acquired in 1707/1710, the girandoles were located in the audience chamber of the Dresden Castle. As only a few transport lists have remained, it is difficult to say exactly where they were taken. The girandoles were presumably removed during the war in August 1943 and brought to Rammenau Castle. The further whereabouts of the girandoles are unknown. A loss in connection with the events of the Second World War is assumed.
