Description

Art-inspired holiday gifts.

In the 1890s, Louis C. Tiffany developed a method of blending colors in glass while it was still in a molten state. The iridescent results, which he named "Favrile" after the Old English fabrile, meaning "hand-wrought," allowed for subtle effects of shading and texture. Two early 20th-century Favrile vases designed by Louis C. Tiffany (American, 1848–1933) for Tiffany Glass and Decorating Company (American, 1892–1902) and now in The Met's American Wing lend their luminous motifs to our ornaments presented in a gift-worthy canister.
