Court Dancer, Early 18th-Century Glass Miniature
A small white figure of a dancer in a ruffled costume, with a feathered hat and rose-red accents, balances a long pole with knobbed ends across the shoulders. The figure stands on a textured oval base, with a glossy, delicate surface suggesting lampwork glass over a metal armature.
