[Rarebooks] FS: Antique Tiffany Flower & Animal Jewelry

[Joslin Hall Rare Books]

TITLE: “Tiffany Flora / Tiffany Fauna”

By John Loring.
Published by Harry N. Abrams in 2003.

DISCUSSION: A colorful, sumptuous survey of the best and most dramatic in
Tiffany jewelry in two volumes, one focusing on animals, the other on
flowers. “a striking visual survey of the unparalleled craftsmanship of
Tiffany & Co. The effect is like peering into an ark of fantastic,
bejeweled creatures—winged dragons with fiery eyes clutching beautiful
gems; a golden parrot in a jaunty diamond cap and blue enameled
pantaloons; an extravagant wreath of diamond and platinum leaves and
flowers; a blushingly suggestive enameled orchid; and a Tiffany lamp in
blues and greens evoking an illuminated wisteria.” The pieces illustrated
and described range from the 19th century to the present day. A must-have
set for the Tiffany & Co. enthusiast.

DESCRIPTION: Hardcover. 2 volumes. 7.5”x8.5”, 128 + 128 pages, color and
black & white illustrations, dust jackets. Slipcased.

CONDITION NOTES: In fine, new condition.

PRICE: $65.00
