LOUIS COMFORT TIFFANY (United States, 1848 - 1933).Art Nouveau vase "Lilies", ca. 1910.Signed "L.C.T. 889A" on the base.Another vase with similar characteristics is referenced in the book "The Art Of Louis Comfort Tiffany", p. 187.Provenance: Private collection, Spain between 1970-1990.Measurements: 15 cm (height) x 10 cm (diameter).Louis Comfort Tiffany was the American artist and industrial designer most associated with the Art Nouveau movement. He was a painter, interior decorator, designer of stained glass windows and lamps, glass mosaics, blown glass, ceramics, jewellery and metalwork. On this occasion we present the "Lilies" vase, an elegant piece with a circular belly and prominent shoulders whose surface has been decorated with a subtle foliate motif typical of Art Nouveau.Louis attended Eagleswood Military Academy in Perth Amboy, New Jersey. His early artistic training was as a painter, studying with George Inness and Samuel Coleman in New York City and with Leon Bailly in Paris. In about 1875 he became interested in glassmaking and worked in various glassworks in Brooklyn. In 1879 he partnered with Samuel Colman and Lockwood de Forest to form Louis Comfort Tiffany and Associated American Artist. Tiffany's leadership and talent, along with his father's connections and financial resources, made the business a success. Tiffany's desire to concentrate on glass as an artistic element led to the dissolution of the company in 1885, when he chose to establish his own glass-making firm. The first Tiffany Glass Company was incorporated on 1 December 1885, and in 1900 it became known as Tiffany Studios. In his factory he used opaque glass in a variety of colours and textures to create a unique style of stained glass, which contrasted with the method of transparent painted or enamelled glass that had been the dominant methods of stained glass making for hundreds of years in Europe. The use of coloured glass for stained glass was motivated by the ideals of the Arts and Crafts movement and its leader William Morris in England. Artist and glassmaker John La Farge was Tiffany's main competitor in this new American style of stained glass. Both had learned their craft in the same Brooking glassworks in the late 1870s. In 1893 Tiffany built a new factory, called Tiffany Glass Furnaces, located in Corona Queens, New York. That same year his new company introduced the term favrile in conjunction with its first production of blown glass. Early examples of his lamps were exhibited at the Chicago World's Fair in 1893, and he registered the term favrile on 13 November 1894. He then extended the use of this term to his entire production of glass, enamel and ceramics. The first commercially produced lamps date from around 1895. Much of his company's production was the manufacture of stained glass for windows and the creation of lamps, although his company designed a complete range of decorative objects for interiors. At its peak, his factory employed more than 300 craftsmen. Tiffany used all his skills in the design of his own house in Oyster Bay, New York, Long Island, which had 84 rooms and was completed in 1904. It was later donated to his foundation for art students, along with 243,000 m² of land, but was destroyed by fire in 1957. Tiffany maintained a close relationship with the family-owned Tiffany Company. Many of the products he produced were sold there. After his father's death in 1902 he became Artistic Director of Tiffany & Co. Tiffany Studios remained in business until 1928.

LOUIS COMFORT TIFFANY (United States, 1848 - 1933).Art Nouveau vase, 1906.Favrile iridescent blown glass. Inscribed "Favrile".Signed "L.C.T, 1906, n.9606".Measurements: 11,5 cm (height) x 9 cm (diameter).This vase is made of Favrile glass, a type of glass patented by Tiffany in 1892. As we can see, Favrile glass has a peculiar characteristic that is common to some antique Classical glass: it has a surface iridescence. This iridescence causes the surface to shine, but also causes a degree of opacity. This iridescent effect of the glass was obtained by mixing different colours of glass together while it was hot.Louis Comfort Tiffany was the American artist and industrial designer most associated with the Art Nouveau movement. He was a painter, interior decorator, designer of stained glass windows and lamps, glass mosaics, blown glass, ceramics, jewellery and metalwork. Louis attended Eagleswood Military Academy in Perth Amboy, New Jersey.

Carrie Reichardt Untitled Ceramic Signed on Verso 15 x 10cm (5¾ x 3¾ in.) About Carrie Reichardt's ancestry can be traced back through a long line of aristocratic eccentrics. Her grandfather, Joseph Reichardt owned estates in the Austrian Empire and was known as The Camel Hair King of America after making a fortune shipping camel hair wool from Persia via his offices in New York. He worked for the Tsar of Russia during World War I and was awarded the title of Count before fleeing the Russian Revolution. Count Reichardt was bankrupted after losing the cutting rights to all the trees on the Caspian Sea. He moved to England with three sons. The eldest became a Nuclear Scientist. The youngest was Tony Reichardt, who prospered as an influential dealer in Modern Art in post-war London and was close friends with Francis Bacon. The second son was Carrie Reichardt's father Roland, who became a Rigsbyesque property landlord as well as being a faith healer with a keen interest in erotica. Carrie Reichardt gained a First Class degree in Fine Art at Leeds University and has had a career spanning many media, including film, performance and sculpture. She is perhaps best known as a ceramicist and mosaicist, working internationally on large scale public murals. A renegade who is revered in anti-establishment circles, Reichardt's preoccupation with seditious ceramics places her within an artistic tradition extending back to William Morris. She creates anarchic artworks where vintage floral, kitsch, royal and religious crockery is given a new twist by re-firing with layers of new ceramic decals They are modified in a "radical use of traditional things" and often adorned with skulls, cheeky slogans and political statements. Her first solo exhibition, entitled "Mad in England", provided an exploration of this theme, which she has continued to pursue in subsequent work. Carrie Reichardt has spoken publicly about the use of craft and art as protest and her skills have been put to good use as a vehicle for her own political activism, most notably her campaigning for prisoners on Death Row and her involvement with the fight to gain justice for the Angola 3. Despite having a rebellious streak, it is testament to her talent and vivacious personality that Reichardt was awarded the Winston Churchill Travelling Fellowship in 2013, enabling her to work with local communities in Chile and Mexico. Carrie Reichardt has been an outspoken advocate for using Art as a form of personal therapy and "Mad In England" is a perfect back stamp for her work. It is fitting that her house and studio in Chiswick is famously called The Treatment Rooms.
