- Lot Description
Large Tiffany Studios Pottery Vase and Base
Glazed earthenware
New York, c. 1910
The squat wide-shouldered vase with molded dogwood motif surrounding the rim, in a thinly applied matte green glaze over a white clay body, the base incised B.P. 165, with conjoined LCT monogram, and 7, ht. 6 1/4, dia. 15; with a corresponding four-footed stand in a blue/black semi-matte glaze with band of morning glory vines in low relief, base incised with conjoined LCT monogram, and 7, loss to one foot, ht. 3, dia. 7 in.
Provenance: The Estate of Vito D'Agostino.
Notes: The prefix of "B.P." with the registration number of this vase suggests that it was originally intended for the Tiffany Studios Bronze Pottery line. In Martin Eidelberg's Tiffany Favrile Pottery and the Quest for Beauty, he notes that these vases were "fired to the bisque state, coated in the interior in a glaze (generally moss green) and fired again" (p. 68). This piece appears to have made it partway through the process, with the green glaze having been applied to the exterior in error, or for experimental purposes. See Eidelberg's work for a similar example with the bronze plating, p. 71, fig. 116.
Estimate $1,000-1,500
