Egyptologist Howard Carter not only discovered King Tut's
tomb in November of 1922, he opened the door to history
and gave birth to public fascination and interest in "all things Egyptian."
The media coverage at the time was unprecedented, and as
each new piece of treasure emerged from the tomb, the
awaiting public marveled at the skill and beauty of these objects of desire. Before long, manufacturers, jewelery designers, couturiers, theatre designers and architects all began producing their own pieces, inspired by ancient Egyptian art and the lure of the desert.
Radiant Tiffany stained glass has the ability to dramatically transform interior space. The Egyptian Series is featured in the Quality Bent Glass collection from Meyda Tiffany, successor to the works of Louis Comfort Tiffany. Hand-crafted from the original molds, tools and techniques used in the 1920s, skilled American artisans re-create the most popular lamps of the era. Delicate pastels and vivid tones on glass panels depict the Great Pyramids in a magnificent sunset setting.
