Favrile glass is an iridescent art glass invented and patented in the 1890s by Louis Comfort Tiffany, best known for its rich, shimmering colors and metallic surface effects. Unlike ordinary painted or coated glass, the iridescent quality of Favrile glass is embedded into the material itself during production, giving each piece a luminous appearance that changes with the light. Tiffany used it extensively in stained-glass windows, vases, lampshades, and decorative objects produced by Tiffany Studios during the Art Nouveau period. Favrile glass drew inspiration from ancient Roman and Syrian glassware but became a hallmark of American decorative arts through its innovative techniques, flowing organic forms, and vivid coloration.
