The Lamps of Tiffany Studios: Nature Illuminated Book

TFNY-0034 THE LAMPS OF TIFFANY STUDIOS: NATURE ILLUMINATED (Hoffer/Klassen). The intricate and brilliantly colored masterpieces by Tiffany Studios have captivated collectors for decades, and continue to inspire crafters who recreate them in home workshops today. This book features eighty of the Studios most iconic lamps, including rare and one-of-a- kind creations. The lamps have all been newly photographed in sumptuous detail to reveal features in the glass and metalwork that have never been seen before in print. Intricate patterns dazzle with kaleidoscopic fantasies: wisteria that twists and curls with grace, peonies that explode with color, and dragonflies that dance with the light. Uniting a reverence for nature and a fascination with the artistic potential of glass, Louis C. Tiffany and his designers created a revolutionary design aesthetic that brought the beauty of the natural world into the home. By The New York Historical Society Museum & Library. 144 pages.
