This cup is not signed.

Harold Tishler (1893, Odessa – 1993, Florida) Studied engineering in 1910 at University of Grenoble but did not finished his studies and moved to New York 1913. During WWI, he joined the Merchant Marines and while visiting Japan was introduced to the art of Cloisonne enameling. In 1927, Tishler went to Vienna to study under Josef Hoffmann. Upon his return to NYC in 1932, he began producing copper and silver enamels that were sold at high-end stores.
In 1935, Tishler visited a fellow student from the Kunstgewerbeschule in Vienna, Edward Winter in Cleveland. Tishler was impressed by Winter’s enameling process and adopted it.
In 1937 he exhibited at the MOMA Silver Exhibition and the International Exposion in Paris where he won gold and silver medals for his enameled pieces.
Tishler moved to Florida in 1969 and his designed changed from abstracts to producing enamels with mostly animals and plants to sell at a gift shop he and his wife had opened.
