Vase
Louis C. Tiffany American
Tiffany Furnaces American
When Louis Tiffany initiated his work with blown art glass in 1893, he hired skilled glass workers from England, and encouraged experimentation. As he had in his work in mosaics and leaded-glass windows, his workers developed new colors, textures, and other effects, and achieved a tremendous diversity within the medium, pushing it in entirely new and untired directions. This vase presents a highly organic form, with a bulb-like onion-shaped base and highly abstracted leaf forms.
