The Louis C. Tiffany Morning Glories Shawl interprets a gorgeous glass vase (ca. 1913) by Louis Comfort Tiffany (American, 1848–1933) in The Met collection. Formerly in the designer's own private collection, it was among a group of items loaned to The Met in 1925, and later given to the Museum in 1951. Celebrated for his innovations in stained glass, Louis Comfort Tiffany embodied the artistic spirit of America's Gilded Age. This Favrile vase was part of a series depicting morning glories; the first one was exhibited at the Exposition Universelle in Paris in the year 1900. This shawl is 79" x 28" and is made of 40% wool/40% viscose/20% silk. Dry clean only.
