One can easily follow a thread through Louis Comfort Tiffany’s many creative mediums when viewing the jewels in this lot. The twisted wirework or cannetille on the bracelet is typical of his iron work during the late 1800s, as evident on the mantel candelabra he designed in 1879-1880 for the Seventh Regiment Armory. The citrines used in the necklace and bracelet are an example of his choice of a gemstone that allowed light to penetrate, while still obscuring objects on the other side, much like his stained glass windows.
