Vase (USA)
This is a vase. It was manufactured by Tiffany Studios and the design director was Louis Comfort Tiffany. It is dated ca. 1900 and we acquired it in 1966. Its medium is favrile glass. It is a part of the Product Design and Decorative Arts department.
This Tiffany vase, made from "favrile glass" (a term coined by Tiffany and applied to the company’s iridescent glassware) stands on a tall narrow stem. Nature was a common influence for the form of Tiffany vases and the slender stem paired with the flared, waving top are meant to mimic a fluted flower.
