Tiffany Peonies Cloisonné Blown Glass Ornament

This Tiffany Peonies Cloisonné Blown Glass Ornament from the Metropolitan Museum of Art is based on Garden Landscapes, a luminous three-panel window produced for Tiffany Studios (1902-1932) by Agnes F. Northrop (1857-1953). The window panel, now in The Met Museum's American Wing, was commissioned by businesswoman and philanthropist Sarah Cochran to evoke the idyllic grounds of her grand estate, Linden Hall, in Pennsylvania. Textured glass lends a three-dimensional quality and a dazzling iridescence to the peonies. The ornament measures 3" in diameter with a coordinated gold mesh ribbon attached for hanging, and comes in a padded decorative gift box.
