Provenance and Comments: This item was in a crate at the Jeu de Paume in 1941. The information recorded in Rose Valland's crate inventory describes the item as a "lustre verrerie." If R 795 is in fact the item in crate R 509, the official ERR inventory describes it more as a sculpted element made from crystal rock.
