Tiffany
Louis Comfort Tiffany (1848-1933) was one of the most original and influential designers and America's leading proponent of Art Nouveau. Tiffany Studios, founded in 1889, were well known for their use of sensuous, organic, and floral forms. This book features Tiffany`s most beautiful stained glass vases and lamps, whose distinctive designs and iridescent, haunting colors have made them extremely popular and sought after the world over.

I purchased this book from Borders Book Store in January of 2007 and found it to be an exquisitely photographed collection of Tiffany's works. The color quality is excellent, and the paper is substantial. As a Tiffany collector, I found it to be a great addition to my book shelf.
