Cycles “Brillant” received the highest honors for spare part replacement at the Universal Exposition of 1900, spurring these two winged seraphs to greet the new bicycle, only to nearly faint from its brilliance. This is among Gray’s finest designs: the luminous diamond casts rays of light that mimic the bike’s spokes and shimmer in the angels’ diaphanous accessories.
