Description

A Tiffany Studios New York “Flower-Form” vase, featuring a green pulled-feather decoration on a cream ground. The vase has a goblet top and applied foot.

Favrile glass vases in the shapes of stylized flowers were among the earliest creations of the Tiffany Glass and Decorating Company, forerunner of Tiffany Studios. Initial examples of this technique date from approximately 1894, although later pieces show greater refinement. Flower forms have great variety in stem length and rim shape.
