The Metropolitan Museum of Art Ornaments*Louis C. Tiffany Daffodil Cloisonne Ornament

Art Ornaments Inspired By The Met Collection.

The Radiant Yellow Blooms Elevating This Intricate Cloisonné Ornament Are Borrowed From The “Daffodil” Lamp Produced By Tiffany Studios (American, 1902–32) Around 1904–10. The Daffodil Appears To Have Been A Popular Tiffany Studios Subject Over Several Decades, And Archival Photographs Of This Design In Progress Show Real Daffodils Arranged On Model Shades, Demonstrating How Closely The Artisans Worked From Nature. Now In The Met’S American Wing, The Lamp Exhibits Louis C. Tiffany’S (American, 1848–1933) Enduring Reverence For The Natural World.
