Tiffany Studios New York "Pansy" Favrile Glass Vase
Tiffany Studios New York "Pansy" Favrile Glass Vase

Tiffany Studios New York "Pansy" Favrile Glass Vase

By Tiffany Studios

Located in New York, NY

Known as a "Pansy" vase, this Favrile glass creation by Tiffany Studios New York begins with a bulbous base in deep hues of striated, swirling iridescent yellow and gold. Shooting upward from the base is an elongated, narrow neck of similar coloration, darkening in coloration as it ascends. From the narrow neck explodes an outward facing glass bloom in brilliant shades of ochre, umber and marigold, made to shimmer by the undulations in the bloom's outer edges, all tinged with iridescence. Item #: T-22418 Artist: Tiffany Studios New York Country: United States Circa: 1900 Dimensions: 17" height, 8.75" width, 4.5" depth. Materials: Favrile Glass Signed: L.C.T. Y1789 Literature: A similar vase is pictured in Timeless Beauty: The Art of Louis Comfort Tiffany, Atglen, PA: Schiffer Publishing, 2016, p. 179; and in: The Tiffany Collection of the Chrysler Museum at Norfolk, by Paul E. Doros, Richmond, VA: W. M. Brown & son, Inc., 1978, p. 40, cat. no. 47 Macklowe Gallery Curator's Notes: The term “Jack-in-the-Pulpit,” commonly used by collectors today, is in fact a misnomer; this model is more accurately identified as a “Pansy” vase. The form of this Favrile “Pansy” vase was first developed by gaffer John Hollingsworth (American, born England, 1851–1923) in 1906. Like all of Tiffany’s skilled glassmakers, Hollingsworth was encouraged to experiment at the furnace, fostering continual innovation in form and finish. Its gold Favrile surface begins as luminous yellow uranium glass, then achieves its signature iridescence through a delicate spray of silver nitrate. From the outset, these vases were highly prized by early collectors of Tiffany’s blown glass...

Antique and Vintage Vases for Sale

Whether it’s a Chinese Han dynasty glazed ceramic wine vessel, a work of Murano glass or a hand-painted Scandinavian modern stoneware piece, a fine vase brings a piece of history into your space as much as it adds a sophisticated dynamic. 

Like sculptures or paintings, antique and vintage vases are considered works of fine art. Once offered as tributes to ancient rulers, vases continue to be gifted to heads of state today. Over time, decorative porcelain vases have become family heirlooms to be displayed prominently in our homes — loved pieces treasured from generation to generation.

The functional value of vases is well known. They were traditionally utilized as vessels for carrying dry goods or liquids, so some have handles and feature an opening at the top (where they flare back out). While artists have explored wildly sculptural alternatives over time, the most conventional vase shape is characterized by a bulbous base and a body with shoulders where the form curves inward.

Owing to their intrinsic functionality, vases are quite possibly versatile in ways few other art forms can match. They’re typically taller than they are wide. Some have a neck that offers height and is ideal for the stems of cut flowers. To pair with your mid-century modern decor, the right vase will be an elegant receptacle for leafy snake plants on your teak dining table, or, in the case of welcoming guests on your doorstep, a large ceramic floor vase for long tree branches or sticks — perhaps one crafted in the Art Nouveau style — works wonders.

Interior designers include vases of every type, size and style in their projects — be the canvas indoors or outdoors — often introducing a splash of color and a range of textures to an entryway or merely calling attention to nature’s asymmetries by bringing more organically shaped decorative objects into a home.

On 1stDibs, you can browse our collection of vases by material, including ceramic, glass, porcelain and more. Sizes range from tiny bud vases to massive statement pieces and every size in between.
