Specialist note
This model was sent by Tiffany to the Paris Exposition of 1867, and can be seen in a period photograph of the firm's display, illustrated in John Loring's Magnificent Tiffany Silver (2001), page 60. Tiffany won a bronze medal at this Exposition, and advertised that it was "the only award ever made by a foreign country to American manufacturers of silverware."
