Tiffany Studios New York "Abalone" Calendar Frame
By Louis Comfort Tiffany
Located in New York, NY
Tiffany Studios’s Abalone pattern calendar frame features interlaced strapwork and grapes composed of flat abalone disks. Tiffany was deeply intrigued by the iridescent qualities found in nature, such as feathers, beetles, and abalone nacre, often incorporating abalone into his early interior design endeavors. Drawing inspiration from the Book of Kells, which played a significant role in igniting the Celtic revival, Tiffany incorporated interlaced strapwork into his designs. One of the most replicated folio pages from the book featured 158 intricate interlacings of white ribbon, with some details only fully revealed under magnification.

Tiffany Studios New York "Scarab" Humidor Box
By Tiffany Studios
Located in New York, NY
First offered through Tiffany & Co., this stunningly naturalistic humidor, which is believed to have been carved from a single piece of wood by Joseph Briggs, was featured in Tiffany & Co.’s Blue Books from 1906 to 1912. The two Favrile glass scarabs reflect a fascination with Ancient Egypt that began in the 1860s with the first archaeological explorations and continued through the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods. The scarab represented the Egyptian sun god Khepri and was a symbol of resurrection. The ancient Egyptians placed scarabs on mummies for good luck and protection against evil as they made their journey to the next world.

Tiffany Studios New York "Oriental Poppy" Leaded Glass and Bronze Floor Lamp
By Tiffany Studios
Located in New York, NY
This Tiffany Studios New York "Oriental Poppy" leaded glass and patinated bronze floor lamp was designed circa 1913. Surmounted by a bronze cap with hogtail finial and geometric piercing, this shade depicts a profusion of deep red and crimson poppies with intense blue centers and hints of amber pollen on a blue green ground of foliage and blue sky streaked with cloud, while the lower rim is bounded by a high relief rippled green glass border. The poppies are depicted in various stages of development from seed pods, to buds on the verge of opening, to blossoms in full flower, and the effect is realized by the use of mottled, streaked and granite glass in a range of painstakingly chosen hues, tones and degrees of intensity and transparency, resulting in the powerful evocation of a three-dimensional naturalism. The shade is raised on a patinated bronze "Senior" floor base. The lamp is a tour-de-force creation reflecting the combined vision of Louis Tiffany and his women collaborators, working together to express ideals of naturalism and impressionism through the decorative arts.

Rembrandt Bugatti "Panthère assise" Bronze Sculpture
By Rembrandt Bugatti
Located in New York, NY
In "Panthère assise" also known as "Seated Panther," Bugatti seems to have been concerned primarily with musculature. The uneven surface exaggerates the contours of muscles which in turn causes a curious effect: weightiness from the amplified muscles and lightness created by the myriad reflecting planes. Bugatti’s sculpture relies on asymmetry, with nearly half of the composition occupied by the panther’s horizontally extended tail. The curve of the tail rises, flowing into the S-shaped arc of the panther’s movement, accentuating the dynamic form of the great cat.

Rupert Carabin Set of Six Castanet Dancers
By François-Rupert Carabin
Located in New York, NY
Carabin's captivating group of six bronze dancers showcases nude models passionately wielding castanets. Five of the dancers are depicted in 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th positions, while the sixth dancer adopts a traditional flamenco stance known as the braceo, characterized by one arm raised and the other resting at the hips in an elegant S shape. The inspiration behind these castanet dancers likely stems from the renowned Spanish performer Carmencita, who gained international fame following her performance at the 1889 Exposition Universelle. Carabin's artistic vision drew from a series of 600 albumen prints capturing nude prostitutes, who frequented local brothels on streets like Rue des Moulins, de Richelieu, d’Amboise, or Joubert. Carabin's early years were marked by his family's exile from Alsace, leading him to settle in Montmartre's red-light district at nine. As an adult, he immersed himself in the vibrant atmosphere of Montmartre's renowned clubs, including the Chat Noir and the Café de la Nouvelle Athènes. In 1895, Carabin crafted 600 nude albumen prints, all of which found a home in the permanent collection of the Musée d'Orsay. Renowned artists such as Degas, Monet, Rodin, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Renoir were avid collectors of Carabin's work, making the prime example of an artists artist.
