Exuding the elegance of Art Nouveau design, this dinnerware service for 10 from Tiffany Studios is composed of pastel-hued, opalescent green Favrile glass. The plates, bowls and glasses feature a striking light green color with slightly scalloped rims, mimicking naturalistic forms and motifs that defined the age. Delicately crafted and remarkably brilliant, this dinner service epitomizes the luminescent style that Tiffany is famous for perfecting.

Inspired by the fluidity and translucence of ancient Roman and Middle Eastern glass, Louis Comfort Tiffany produced blown glass, named "Favrile," between 1891 and 1928. This line boasted pieces of superior quality, renowned for their opalescent and iridescent colored finishes. In sharp contrast to what his critics labeled "industrial art," the Favrile collection features individually-produced objects which were both beautiful and functional. This stunning piece is an outstanding example of Louis Comfort Tiffany's ability to bring beauty and color to the American home.
