Covered Box

Covered Box. Culture: American. Designer: Designed by Louis Comfort Tiffany (American, New York 1848-1933 New York). Dimensions: H. 1 15/16 in. (4.9 cm). Maker: Tiffany Glass and Decorating Company (American, 1892-1902). Date: 1898-1902.
This object forms part of a group of glass vessels and enamel containers Louis Comfort Tiffany loaned to the Museum in 1925 that were later given to the Museum by the Tiffany Foundation in 1951 (51.121.1-.44). Tiffany originally chose this group of objects to show examples of form, technique, and color that were not represented in the 1896 Havemeyer gift (96.17.9-.56). A departure from Tiffany's typical enamelwork, this diminutive covered box features highly stylized leaf motifs in a limited palette that is more closely related to that of cloisonné.
