This exquisite Tiffany Studios vase showcases a green pulled-feather design on a cream background. The baluster-shaped vase is adorned with two iridescent gold ornamental ring handles, a feature often associated with 18th-century Qing dynasty jade vases. The vase's color palette, reminiscent of nephrite jade, subtly hints at its Eastern influence. The interior of the vase is sprayed with silver nitrate to create Tiffany's signature gold lustre.

Favrile is the trade name Louis Comfort Tiffany gave to his blown art glass. The name derives from the Latin word fabrilis, meaning "made by hand." The technique was developed at Tiffany Furnaces in the mid-1890s using filaments from batches of differently colored glass and working the material while the glass was still molten.
