Behind the Scenes of Tiffany Glass Making Book

Everyone knows the beauty and value of Tiffany glass lamps, vases, and windows. But few know that the masterful pieces from the Tiffany Studios would not have been possible without Arthur Nash, developer of the now-priceless Favrile glass, and his son Leslie, director of the studios division of glassmaking, pottery, and enamel. Leslies memoirs, with notes and references, tell the unfiltered and refreshing story of the studios heyday and substantially expand readers knowledge of Favrile glass while his photos comprise the largest collection of heretofore-unknown images of the studios earliest pieces. This historical find is an event in the decorative arts world and will appeal to both collectors and museums as well as to legions of novice antiquarians and fans of Antiques Roadshow. The books publication coincides with the Christies auction of the original Nash manuscript of Tiffany Favrile Glass.Read More
