Description
The richly decorated surface of this Tiffany Studios Byzantine pattern Rocker Blotter, ca. 1910, may have been inspired by the intricate details found in decorative objects from the Byzantine Empire. The three-dimensional gilded surface of Tiffany's interpretation is marked by raised bronze and glass beads and inset coral panels of Tiffany favrile glass.
The Byzantine desk set was manufactured between 1908 and 1914, and was by far the most expensive commercial desk set sold by Tiffany Studios at the time; to make your blotter extra special, the 1909 Tiffany Blue Book stated that "Rosary Pearls" could be added in lieu of glass beads for a minor price increase.
