Favrile Glass Centerpiece
Tiffany Studios
Circa 1916

This exquisite Favrile glass bowl centerpiece perfectly exemplifies Louis Comfort Tiffany’s mastery of color, light and form. Crafted circa 1916, the matched set glows with iridescent blue tones, enriched by red and gold highlights that shimmer across its surface. Favrile glass of this caliber captures Tiffany’s ability to unite natural beauty with technical brilliance.

Visually, the ensemble displays Tiffany’s fascination with organic design. Six stylized green water lilies float gracefully across the bowl’s surface, and the flower “frog” or holder, with its looping blue rim, rises from the center like a bloom in water—an inspired interplay of function and decoration. The lustrous, iridized finish creates a dynamic chromatic range that shifts with the light, a hallmark of Tiffany’s artistry.

Louis Comfort Tiffany, one of America’s foremost artists of the Art Nouveau era, transformed decorative arts through his innovative glassmaking. By pioneering the Favrile technique—iridescent glass colored in its molten state rather than by surface application—Tiffany elevated glass to the realm of fine art. His designs, celebrated for their organic motifs and subtle brilliance, are represented in major museum collections, including the Chrysler Museum of Art and the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts, both of which hold comparable examples.

The bowl and flower holder are both inscribed: L.C.Tiffany Favrile 9879K
