Description:
Antique Tiffany silver flatware is highly sought after, but there has been a lack of available information and pictures of patterns and pieces. This definitive new book relates the history of the silver flatware made by others and retailed by Tiffany 1845-c. 1876 as well as that designed and made in-house 1869-1905. The story is woven into the broader fabric of the history of flatware in general and that of dining and food. The development and proliferation of many different flatware types in America is analysed and compared with the same in England, France and Germany.
Expand description
Based on original research in the Tiffany Archives and elsewhere, this volume discusses and illustrates twenty-three Tiffany-made full-line patterns (plus variations) numerous not-full-line patterns and ten custom patterns. Detailed descriptions and superb photographs document the extraordinary creativity and craftsmanship that distinguished much of Tiffany & Co.'s prolific Victorian flatware production, including more than 125 piece -- types unique to Tiffany -- used for eating and serving fifty food items or categories.
