The silver, ceramics, and glassware, some of which were owned by States and Elizabeth Dyckman, include polished mahogany, gilt bronze, and cut glass that sparkle with always-changing natural light. Pastoral landscapes appear on paintings, prints, ceramics, and even furniture.
Lighting devices includes numerous candlesticks, sconces and Argand lamps, a gilded wood English chandelier, and a rare and important pair of 4-light candelabra by John Blades of London, a leading glass manufacturer of the 18th and 19th century.
Boscobel’s collection inspires designers, artists, scholars, and anyone who appreciates color and craftsmanship.
