Vaso

Designer Designed by Louis C. Tiffany American
1893–96
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 730
Nei primi anni del 1890, Louis Comfort Tiffany e gli abili artigiani che lavoravano nel suo laboratorio a Corona, nello stato di New York, svilupparono un nuovo vetro soffiato da lui battezzato Favrile. Molte forme, colori e vernici dei vasi e dei pannelli di Tiffany si ispiravano ai vetri antichi e al mondo naturale. Questo bellissimo vaso è inconfondibilmente Tiffany per la sua caratteristica iridescenza, che rende sapientemente la morbida lucentezza delle piume del pavone. La forma a ventaglio richiama la ruota del pavone. Il vaso faceva parte di un nutrito gruppo di oggetti donati al Museo nel 1896, solo tre anni dopo da quando Tiffany aveva iniziato a creare vasi ornamentali di vetro soffiato, da parte di Louisine e Henry Osborne Havemeyer, convinti estimatori di Tiffany.
