I happened on this nice five-piece set of Tiffany Studios Zodiac desk set pattern. All the pieces in excellent condition with great detail. See more photos in my store.
Tiffany Studios Grapevine Desk Thermometer
Tiffany Studios desk thermometer with green slag glass. More photos in my store.
Though the stand works smoothly and has no bends, and the mercury is intact and it still tells temperature, the backing glass has a number of cracks. It has been repaired such that all the glass is securely in place.
Tiffany Studios Book Rack, “Pine Needle” pattern #1027
I’ve long been interested in getting my hands on one of these antique, expandable bookends from Tiffany Studios. I was curious to see how it actually expanded and the sides folded up. See more pictures at my online store.
This one moves smoothly and is functionally sound though there is some looseness in the lower corners of the side panels.
The Favrile glass in the end panels of this one are unusually white.
I get asked alot about the glass in the ends because it is uncommon. But it is not uneard of. In fact, I recently saw another example on line of this white-ish-with-a-blue-tint type of glass:
Tiffany Studios Favrile “pulled feather” trumpet vase, 1043
Classic and iconic Tiffany Studios “pulled feather” vase. 12″ tall. Studios is actually spelled with a “v” (Stvdios) as some of these products were.

This is a unique acquisition. The three-tier letter rack, in particular, is special. It is big! I took high-resolution photos in both natural light and under white light, and a couple that are backlit so you get a better sense of the coloring which can vary depending on light color and direction. And it is BIG — see below.
All are clearly stamped and numbered.
The pen wipe is also in excellent condition, and it still has its original brush — which is very rare.
All items are clearly stamped with “Tiffany Studios New York” or “Tiffany Stvdios New York” followed by the 3- or 4-digit model designator. Below I detail each piece by its model number, its approximate dimensions.

Tiffany Studios Venetian Inkwell with Attached Pen Tray — rare find with stunning detail! Pattern #1669
Here is a Tiffany Studios Venetian pattern inkwell on the pen tray with exquisite detail. In Holland’s authoritative book on Tiffany Desksets, he considers this a “3” for rarity on a scale of 1 to 7 (1 is less rare, 7 is extremely hard to find) (Tiffany Desk Sets, Holland, pg 115)
Pattern: Tiffany Studios Venetian 1669
Approximate Dimensions: The tray is 9.5″ square and about .5″ tall. The inkwell itself (which is detachable) is 4″ x 4″ x 4″
Marks: Tiffany Studios New York 1669
This is a fine example of the detailed and symmetrical Venetian pattern, and the acid-etched finish Tiffany often used. The glass insert has several chips around the top, and there is a ding in the cup that holds the glass insert (see photos). Otherwise, it is in exceptional condition. The hinge works perfectly. All around a very nice piece that shows well.
This is a sturdy and solid piece that will hold up well to handling and would be an engaging addition to a collection or as a stand-alone piece in a display.
This is one of the antique Tiffany items I have for sale, so please follow me if you would like to be notified as I add more items from Tiffany Studios, Tiffany Stvdios, Tiffany Furnaces, Tiffany Favrile glass, and a few Tiffany art nouveau pieces, and an occasional piece from Tiffany & Co.
Rare Tiffany Studios Grapevine large Handkerchief box, 824, in exceptional condition, circa 1910 (no cracks, no damage, no repairs)
Every now and then you come across one of those “Wow!” pieces.
This is one of them. This is a Tiffany Studios Large Handkerchief box in the Grapevine pattern. Note that it has four rows of beading, and the variegated green and white glass even has a distinctive streak of blue. I’ve actually been holding on to this one because I’m reluctant to let it go. Frankly, it is not only in stunningly good condition, it is also uniquely clean.
Pattern: Grapevine
Approximate Dimensions: 8″ x 8″ x 2.75″
Marks: Stamped Tiffany Studios New York 824
This piece is really in amazingly good shape. It is clearly stamped, “Tiffany Studios New York” and item number stamped clearly as well: 824. All the glass is perfectly intact, the feet are present, and the hinge works smoothly. The Tiffany slag glass is a gorgeous green with streaks of white, and the bronze is a perfect patina. It must have been stored in a container because there is almost no dust. My mother was an antique dealer when I was a kid, which started my interest in Tiffany. So I have seen many pieces from Tiffany Studios, Tiffany Furnaces and Tiffany Favrile glass, but I have only seen a few pieces as fine as this one. Contact me if you would like to see additional pictures to include from any other angle you desire.
If you really want a distinctive and distinguished piece that is beautifully crafted and presents exceptionally well, this is the one. Antique Tiffany is also a compelling investment. See more pictures of my inventory of Tiffany here in my store.
Buy it before I decide to keep it, and it is only available to a loving home that will cherish it! And set aside some time to unwrap it — it will be well secured with foam, bubble wrap and will be double boxed. You will have to sign for it.
Acid-Etched Tiffany Studios Zodiac Inkwell, 842, with Glass Insert and rare Enamel detail
Finding Tiffany Zodiac Inkwells is not that hard to do. But it is hard to find the acid-etched version of the Zodiac pattern with enamel details in such good condition.
Pattern: Tiffany Studios Zodiac 842
Approximate Dimensions: 4.25″ x 4.25″ x 2.25″
Marks: The stamp on this one is very faint. The 42 of the 842 model number is clear. After adjusting the lighting and filters on my camera, you can see “New York”. Where you would normally see “Tiffany Studios” above “New York”, though you can see an imprint, due to the light strike and acid-etching no characters are legible. Here is another view in addition to those posted to my Tiffany Studios store:
Stamped: New York 842

All around a very nice piece that shows well. This is a sturdy and solid piece that will hold up well to handling and would be an engaging addition to a collection or as a stand-alone piece in a display.
