Vase 1893 - 1896

"Vase" is a striking example of Louis Comfort Tiffany's renowned Favrile glass artistry, a technique he developed to achieve vibrant, iridescent effects. Created between 1893 and 1896, this piece features a slender, elongated form with a captivating interplay of colors, primarily rich reds, yellows, and greens, showcasing the characteristic "drapery" effect. The vase's delicate curves and swirling patterns embody the Art Nouveau style, a movement that celebrated organic forms and natural motifs.
