Curator's Notes
These favrile glass shades take the form of morning glories. Inspired by Japanese woodblock prints, Tiffany created numerous watercolor paintings of morning glories, entranced by their polychromatic brilliance and trumpet-like shape. The morning glory, or asagao, was beloved by the Japanese as the commoner's flower. The asagao blooms at dawn before the sun rises, and consequently, asagao lovers have to rise early to appreciate the blossoms. Like the morning glory rises to the sun, so do these sconces come alive with the addition of light.
