The Metropolitan Museum of Art Louis C. Tiffany Gladioli Rectangular Glass Frame Discount

Radiant Spears Of White Gladioli Reach Along Our Elegant Glass Frame Inspired By The Art Nouveau Decoration On A Favrile Vase (Ca. 1909) By Louis Comfort Tiffany (American, 1848–1933). In The 1890S, The Gilded Age Designer Developed A Method Of Blending Colors In Glass While It Was Still In A Molten State. The Iridescent Results, Which He Named “Favrile” After The Old English Fabrile, Meaning “Hand-Wrought,” Allowed For Subtle Effects Of Shading And Texture. The Designer Never Sold This Vessel, Now At The Met; Rather, He Kept It In His Own Collection.
