Tiffany Style Lamps are some of the most elegant and well-known designs to have been produced by Louis Comfort Tiffany. As an artist by trade, he combined these skills with his as an interior designer, photographer and a world traveller in order to create these beautiful pieces which are an icon in the Art Nouveau era.
Louis Comfort Tiffany and Tiffany & Co (jewellery) are one in the same by name. Louis Comfort Tiffany did not want to become involved in the jewellery making business but made his goal to ‘bring a little bit of art to every American home.’
Besides being best known for his stained glass pieces he embraced all aspects of art including; leaded-glass windows, mosaics, lighting, glass, pottery, metalwork, enamels, jewellery and interiors.
Some of his work is on display at the Louis Comfort Tiffany – Treasures from the Driehaus Collection (x)
