Our Domed Magnets capture the shimmering beauty and nuance of Louis C. Tiffany's (1848-1933) leaded glass lampshades, a highlight of The New York Historical's collection. This set of magnets features details of six lampshades from the Museum's collection, some of which were designed by Clara Driscoll. The designs include details from (clockwise from top left) Clematis Hanging Shade, Magnolia Shade, Daffodil Hanging Shade, Cyclamen Shade, Poinsettia Shade, and Dogwood Shade.
Tiffany and his designers created a revolutionary design aesthetic that brought the beauty of the natural world into the home. The remarkable story of designer Clara Driscoll (1861-1944), manager of the women who selected and cut glass at Tiffany Studios, was revealed in New-York Historical's groundbreaking exhibition, A New Light on Tiffany, and is celebrated in the Museum's Gallery of Tiffany Lamps, a stunning and immersive display space for The Historical's exceptional Tiffany collection.
