Designer: Designed by Louis Comfort Tiffany (American, New York 1848-1933 New York). Dimensions: 8 1/8 x 6 3/4 in. (20.6 cm). Maker: Tiffany Glass and Decorating Company (American, 1892-1902). Date: 1893-96.This object forms part of a group of over forty given to the Museum in 1896 by Louisine and Henry Osborne Havemeyer (96.17.9-.56). The gift was the first American glass to enter the Museum's collection. Most likely prompted by Louis Comfort Tiffany, the Havemeyers presented their collection of Tiffany Favrile glass to the Museum only three years after Tiffany started making decorative blown-glass vessels. The shapes, colors, and finishes of Tiffany's vases and plaques were inspired by the natural world and ancient glass. Some of Tiffany's earliest glass vases, like this opaque gourd-shaped vase, resemble vegetal forms. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.Lazio Viterbo Viterbo Museo Civico16.

Popular among early twentieth-century American Arts and Crafts enthusiasts, Gruebys earthenware pieces and architectural tiles were inspired by Japanese forms and glazed using French techniques. This vase, while not original to the room, is similar to others found in Wright interiors. Wright often designed high shelves around the walls of a room for the display of ceramics and other decorative objects.. Vase 9336Ernest Chaplet (1835 -1909). Vase. Flammed porcelain. 1894.

During the Tang dynasty (618-907), rhinoceros horns were imported into China along with other foreign goods, such as pearls, sandalwood, and camphor. Elaborate rhinoceros-horn cups for drinking wine and other libations were produced widely from the sixteenth century onward..

House of Fabergé (Russian, 1842-1918). Turquoise, diamonds, rock crystal, silver gilt; overall: 8.9 x 3.1 cm (3 1/2 x 1 1/4 in.). These delicate flowers, resembling a bouquet of forget-me-nots, are composed of finely rounded turquoise stones set around rose-cut diamonds on silver-gilt stems placed in rock crystal pots. Fabergés inspiration for his flower studies is said to have come from the floral brooches of precious stones that were made in the 1700s for Catherine the Great as well as from the Japanese art of flower arranging, known as ikebana. Fabergés flower studies were given as intimate gifts to friends by the tsarina and others in the court. She also liked to take them around to wherever the imperial family was residing as a reminder of spring during the harsh Russian winters.Close-up of a perfume bottleFeathered Crown. Culture: Chimú.
