Description

Louis Comfort Tiffany New York produced a wide range of goods including hand mirrors, desk sets, jewelry and glass objects.
Soliflore vases with bronce- or brassfeet became very popular since Tiffany added them to their inventory around 1900. Their remarkable traits were the polished brass feet and the highly colorful iridescence on the glass.
Artist
Louis Comfort Tiffany (New York 1848 – 1933 New York) was a famous American designer, artist and painter of American Art Nouveau. He was best known for his works in glass colored with metal salts and made a name for himself in the decorative arts at the time. In the course of his career, he created a unique style that combined outstanding craftsmanship with a love for natural shapes and bright colors. Nature had always been his inspiration and in his designs he tried, in his very own way, to capture its beauty forever. Tiffany designed lamps, glass mosaics, lead glass windows, glass vases, ceramics, jewellery, enamel and metalwork. Among the highlights of his work were countless high awards, including a Grand Prix at the 1900 Paris World Exhibition and his life’s work “Laurelton Hall”, an 84-room home for his family in Long Island, New York.
