Tiffany Favrile glass is a type of iridescent glass developed by Louis Comfort Tiffany in the late 19th century. Tiffany, known for his innovative approach to stained glass, created Favrile glass to achieve unique effects, including vibrant colors, rich textures, and a lustrous, almost metallic sheen. The name "Favrile" itself is derived from an Old English word meaning "handmade," reflecting Tiffany's dedication to craftsmanship.
What makes Favrile glass distinctive is its production process. Tiffany infused mineral additives into molten glass, which resulted in a rich, permanent iridescence that could not be rubbed off or replicated by mere surface coating. Unlike many other iridescent glasses that are achieved by applying metallic salts on the surface, Favrile glass’s color and shimmer are integral to the glass itself, giving it a depth and elegance that captivated audiences.
The patterns in Favrile glass often take inspiration from nature, featuring motifs of flowers, feathers, and seashells. The glass became popular in jewelry, vases, lamps, and windows, with Tiffany Studios producing some of the most iconic lampshades in Art Nouveau style.
