Both beginning and sophisticated collectors will fmd new data and many photographs never before available, taken from the original Tiffany Studios catalogues, as well as biographical details of Tiffany's life and fascinating facts about the designing of the products and the materials and processes used. The author gives many pointers for distinguishing the authentic from the forgery for many of the more popular collector's items. Special insight into the making of Tiffany glass was obtained in an interview with one of the last surviving Tiffany glassmen, whose sketches of viises made at the studios are published here for the first time. As a special bonus, Robert Koch has added the complete 1906 Tiffany price list of almost L600 items and an illustrated 1933 catalogue of 85 lamps and shades. Vissza
