A RARE DIVISION ONE TIFFANY GLASS BUTTON

1 Large early 20th century realistic scarab beetle example. After our last auction where we sold a Tiffany glass scarab button, a collector of Tiffany glass that we know who is quite respected in the Tiffany world called and asked if we would be interested in selling a button he had that was a Tiffany button, and of course we said yes. This is not the same as the example in our last auction, but the iridescence and quality of the glass is certainly of the quality known to Tiffany Favrille glass and along with this experts opinion we are in no doubt of its authenticity. A great and beautiful large example indeed. Dimensions: SM=Less than 3/4", Medium=3/4" to 1 1/4". Large=1 1/4" and above, extra large=1 3/4" and above Date or Era: DIVISION 1=PRE 1918 AND DIVISION 3 IS AFTER 1918 Condition Request Condition Report PLEASE NOTE: These buttons for the most part are antique and may have age related wear. We make every effort to point out any significant condition related concerns, but again they are antique and not new. We also cannot be responsible for replaced shanks or issues related to the backs of any buttons on multiple button cards as we do not remove these buttons to re-card them. Please contact us if you would like any further condition reports on any lot.

Estimate:£151.14
