Soon after its opening in 1837, Tiffany became one of the leading names in jewellery. This volume in the "Fashion Memoir" series displays the jewellery, trinkets and lamps by Louis Comfort Tiffany and the work of other famous artists and designers whose work has been showcased by the company, including Elsa Peretti and Paloma Picasso. The first American business to win a prize nominated by a European jury at the Paris World Exhibition in 1878, Tiffany has continued to occupy a unique place in contemporary design.
