Catalan term or phrase: aranya de cristall (architectural feature)

From a description of the Palau de la Generalitat. To my shame, I must confess never having entered its portals. Does anybody know what this is exactly. Some great web like structure, or what?

ORIGINAL: "Destaca un Sant Jordi de Frederic Marés i l’enorme ***aranya de cristall*** de dos pisos. És el primer gran espai renaixentista de Barcelona"
