Vase

The Metropolitan Museum of Art

Black and white photo of two glass vases by Louis Comfort Tiffany. The vases are identical and made of dark-colored glass with a wide mouth, a narrow neck, and a flared base. They have two handles on either side that are shaped like curved horns. The handles are attached to the body of the vase with decorative metal pieces. Each vase has a circular design on the front featuring a round white circle surrounded by a leafy wreath and the number 1904. The vases have a shiny appearance with a textured base. They sit on a white surface with a small ruler-like object in front of the left vase and a blurry label in front of the right vase. The background is white.
