"Tyg" is a stunning example of Louis Comfort Tiffany's signature Favrile glass, a technique he developed to create iridescent glass with organic, flowing forms. This piece, created between 1900 and 1920, showcases Tiffany's mastery of color and texture, with its shimmering gold and iridescent hues, as well as the intricate details in the handles and base. It is a fine example of the Art Nouveau style, a movement that emphasized natural forms and flowing lines. "Tyg" is currently on display at the Art Institute of Chicago, a testament to the enduring beauty and craftsmanship of Tiffany's art glass.
