Driscoll was appointed head of the women's glass-cutting department at Tiffany Studios in 1892, and she and her team of female artisans created some of the most sought-after and commercially successful designs in the firm's history. The \u003cem\u003ePoppy\u003c\/em\u003e shade shows her commitment to Louis Comfort Tiffany's Art Nouveau aesthetic of harmonious colors and natural motifs while also demonstrating her unique visionary approach. By 1904, Driscoll had won medals at international expositions for her designs and was one of the highest-paid women in America. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Tiffany lamps are one of the great icons of the American decorative arts, representing Louis Comfort Tiffany's seemingly limitless creativity and endless quest for beauty. Similar examples of this \u003cem\u003ePoppy\u003c\/em\u003e lamp reside in important museum collections such as the Cleveland Museum of Art, and the design drawing for this famed shade belongs to the Metropolitan Museum of Art. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Shade marked \"Tiffany Studios \/ New York\" \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e 27\" high x 20\" diameter \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Literature:\u003cbr\u003e Alastair Duncan, \u003cem\u003eTiffany Lamps and Metalware\u003c\/em\u003e, Woodbridge, Suffolk, 2007, pp. 162, no. 667 (shade); p. 76, no. 294 (base)\u003cbr\u003e Dr. Egon Neustadt, \u003cem\u003eThe Lamps of Tiffany\u003c\/em\u003e, New York, 1970, pp. 96-97 (shade)","brand":"M.S.
