About Tiffany Art Glass

A painter by training, Louis Comfort Tiffany achieved renown for his stained glass window murals and lampshades, experimenting with combinations of materials to make glass that took on otherworldly textures and colors. Tiffany later expanded into glass vases and bowls, and though he retired in 1918, his Tiffany Studios retained a reputation for quality.

Tiffany's work was primarily Art Nouveau, though he created some few Art Deco pieces in later years. He didn’t blow glass himself, but rather designed pieces and hired employees to produce them by hand. Several artists who created pieces for Tiffany, such as Martin Bach of Quezal, eventually started their own companies.

Note that Tiffany is one of the most widely copied and faked designers of the 20th century.
