Overall, an excellent book showcasing the best of Tiffany
This is both a book for collectors , and a "coffee table" beauty. The photos are superb, the items selected are the "best of the best", and the narrative is well-written. Unfortunately, those itemsmissing from the book are the Favrile tiles and small pieces--jewelry,scarabs; these are pieces that many collectors can afford and are stillavailable.

A beautiful, well written guide to Tiffany Favrile Glass.
The beautiful photos and well written commentary make this book the finest on the subject available. Detailed descriptions along with superior photo quality make this a must for new collectors and experts alike.

Great source of information
I find this book visually exciting, and definately an addition to the collectible word in matters pertaining to the "Mystic" and "Magic" of the maveric artist "Louis Comfort Tiffany". If you ownany Tiffany Favrile Glass this is one of the must have books. ... Read more
