This Tiffany piece has considerably more detail than others of this type. Besides the eight padded and wheel-carved wild rose blossoms, all of the green leaves and branches are intaglio carved, giving the leaves a serrated edge. Plus, an additional fifteen leaves are carved into the gold background. On top of that, all of the thorns are also intaglio carved. It must have taken a great ammount of time and effort to continue moving this heavy vase into position for each cut at the copper wheel engraving lathe. (2009)
Another fantastic piece nice to have & such good taste.
Fantastic vase!
Outstanding! Incredible! Fantastic! Need I say more?
By the way, there is another book of Tiffany blown glass, mostly vases with a few bowls, called "Tiffany Favrile Glass and the Quest of Beauty" by Martin Eidelberg, published in 2007.
Beautiful!...now can we get back to your Loetz :-))..and how about a few posts of your own creations?...People, this man is also an Artist in glass.
Tony- 60% of my collection is Loetz, so I need to post some of my "lesser" pieces in among the Loetz. I don't want to show all of the best pieces first. What's the fun in that?
The blue diatreta floriform vase in my profile box above is a piece of my work.
Just having fun Jim..hope you didn't take it any other way. You know I love everything in your collection. I know you did a series of magnificent glass pieces. I was hpoing to maybe coax you into sharing here.
Tony- I posted my comments in a light hearted manner and didn't intend for it to be taken any other way. Sorry if I sounded angry. And, one of these days I will post some of my work.
What a great skill to have good on you & I agree you should show some of your own work.
That would be good wouldn't it JayHow
