This new volume illustrates over 50 Tiffany lamps, windows, mosaics, ceramics, and enamels, supplemented by archival photographs and documents. The opening chapter focuses on the objects designed by Clara Driscoll - from the early and experimental. Deep Sea lamp to the popular Wisteria model - and illuminates steps in the design and manufacturing process previously unknown to scholars. The second chapter examines Clara's role as manager of the Women's Class Cutting Department, discusses the role of women within the larger context of the firm, and describes the tension between the men's and women's departments. The final chapter explores Clara's experience as a single working woman in New York City during the 1890s and early 1900s.
The volume also features brief biographies of the 63 women designers, selectors, and glass cutters associated with Tiffany Studios.
