This item was made by L.C.T in 1905 for the Christmas display in Tiffany's Jewelry store on 5th Ave in New York City . It was 1 of 2 made , the Gold Aurene Tree was dropped and broken when the Christmas display was removed in 1906 . This one remains - this story was told to my mothers husband on July 8 , 1974 by A. Christian Revy , when he purchased the tree . It is signed "Louis C Tiffany - Favrille" / former collection of Arthur Saunders . It stands 13 1/2" tall and it is pictured in Revi's book "American Art Nouveau Glass" on pg 110 .
JUST WONDERFUL !!!!
Great survival story!
