Tile, 1900-1910

Summary

This tile is an example of pressed glass made at the Tiffany Furnaces. The two trapezoidal panels have not been "cracked out, meaning that the excess glass surrounding the tile from the molding process have yet to be removed. These panels were used to make small lampshades, other panels of this type were made for use in small decorative boxes.
