Japanese by Tiffany & Co. Sterling Kettle on Stand with Birds and Foliage
About the Item
Japanese by Tiffany & Co. sterling kettle on stand with hand chased birds and applied foliage as presented in the Magnificent Tiffany book by John Loring. The piece is marked with an old English M and #1878, and it also has a Union Square mark circa 1870-75 ( M refers to Edward C. Moore, head of Tiffany's operation until 1891). It measures 13 tall, 9 1/2 wide, and it weighs 66.6 ozt. It is not monogrammed and is in excellent museum quality condition. The detail on the design and birds is crisp. Truly a work of art.
Japanese (now Audubon) was designed in 1871, during the most innovative period in the history of Tiffany silver, and Audubon is still one of the most popular of all Tiffany patterns. Japanese was the first Tiffany pattern to introduce silver decorated in the Japanese revival style. The flowing designs of branches and twigs with leaves, buds, flowers and exotic birds were entirely different from anything in American silver at that time.
This pattern was a direct result of the interest in exotic cultures that became widespread in the late nineteenth century. This interest led directly into the American Art Nouveau movement, whose leader was Louis Comfort Tiffany, son of Tiffany's founder.
Japanese is decorated with intricate designs adapted from 19th century Japanese bird paintings.

ENGLISH KING (c. 1885)
Patterns similar to our English King were first used in France and England late in the eighteenth century and have remained among the most popular styles for>flatware today, in both Europe and America. Tiffany & Co. first made its own version of English King in 1885. It harmonizes with any eighteenth-century-inspired style neo-Georgian, Colonial, Louis XVI, Sheraton, Chippendale, Adam or Hepplewhite. The rich, intricate decoration of Tiffany's English King pattern reflects the luxurious entertainments given during the latter part of the eighteenth century and will enhance and give a sense of occasion to present-day settings.
Designed by Charles Grosjean (1841-1888). Grosjean worked in his family's firm which produced high end silverware to prominent New York City retailers, including Tiffany. Upon his father's death, Grosjean left his family firm to become superintendent of Tiffany's silver factory in 1868. He had great background in silver and was an artist and was referred to as "one of the best living decorators of silver". He was a teacher in the Tiffany School and designed a few full lines of sterling patterns...

Chrysanthemum by Tiffany & Co.
Tiffany’s luxurious Chrysanthemum silver was designed in 1880. With its flowing curves, swirling vegetation, meandering tendrils and exotic blossoming plants, Chrysanthemum is characteristic of “the Tiffany style” or “Art Nouveau” as that style is now more commonly known. The rich and graceful flowering motifs of Chrysanthemum were undoubtedly influenced by Louis Comfort Tiffany. They make Chrysanthemum the most sumptuous of any American silver pattern.
