Louis Comfort TIFFANY (New-York, 1848-1933) Suite of four "Favrile Glass" cups and saucers. All pieces signed "L.C.T". Height 5,5 Diameter (of the saucer) 15,5 cm. Provenance : Parisian collection from the place Clichy. Oven "Favrile Glass" cups and saucers by Louis Comfort Tiffany. The "Favrile Glass" is a type of iridescent glass developed and patented by Tiffany in 1894. Unlike other iridescent glasses, the colour is not only on the surface but incorporated into the paste. Tiffany won the grand prize at the 1900 World's Fair for this invention. Among the distinctive colours of Favrile glass are "Samian Red", "Aquamarine", "Mazarin Blue" and "Gold Lustre", the colours of our cups. Automatically translated by DeepL.
