Book Description
Louis Comfort Tiffany's blown art glass, made from 1891 to 1928, embodies the artist's superior workmanship and satisfied his dream to introduce objects of both usefulness and beauty into the average household. These lovely objects, which he named "Favrile" and made in his New York studio, display Tiffany's reverence for antique glass and include the colored, gold iridescent, blue iridescent, and opalescent forms featured in this book. Over 240 color photographs of objects from many public and private collections, a very interesting text, and meticulously composed descriptions display Tiffany's intriguing art glass together for the first time in book form. Comments about their rarity accompany the descriptions.
About The Author
Moise Steeg has approached art, like each of his many interests, with dedication and attention to detail. A practicing attorney in New Orleans, Louisiana, he shares his fascination of Tiffany Glass with many professionals and institutions, and now with the world.
Reader Reviews
This is both a book for collectors , and a "coffee table" beauty. The photos are superb, the items selected are the "best of the best", and the narrative is well-written. Unfortunately, those items missing from the book are the Favrile tiles and small pieces--jewelry, scarabs; these are pieces that many collectors can afford and are still available.
