Tiffany Studios New York "Leaf & Vine" Wheel-Carved Favrile Glass Vase
Regular price
$37,500
A Tiffany Studios New York Art Nouveau wheel-carved Favrile glass "Leaf & Vine" vase by Louis Comfort Tiffany. Aptly known as a "Leaf & Vine" vase, this Louis Comfort Tiffany piece, arrestingly round in structure and featuring a stately, multi-tiered and similarly rounded lip, boasts of a beautiful contrast of texture, sheen and coloration. While the backdrop of the composition is an enticing golden hue replete with shimmering iridescence, throughout which wheel carved, four pointed leaves float ethereally, delicately connected by thin dancing vines in the same hue of green.

A study in contrast, Tiffany not only includes opposites in the arenas of color, texture and luster but also in the ethereal and the ultra-realistic, with the leaves of the work being executed with astonishing naturalism, while the background of the piece gives the a supernal aura.
