L. C. Tiffany was born the son of Charles Lewis Tiffany, founder of the world-famous Tiffany & Co. He was motivated by the ideals of the Arts and Crafts Movement. In 1893 his company introduced the term, Favrile, which he trademarked in 1894. Favrile an adaptation of the Old English word fabrile, meaning handmade or hand-wrought. He used this word to apply to all of his glass, enamel and pottery. Much of his other work was in making glass picture windows, but his company designed a complete range of interior decorations. |
