LOS ANGELES — Rago‘s Art Nouveau and Art Deco Glass and Lighting sale July 11 provided auction watchers with yet another romp by Tiffany Studios wares from the early 20th century. Many estimates were doubled by bidders, demonstrating the continued demand for top-quality Tiffany relics. Complete results are available at LiveAuctioneers.

Leading the sale at $160,000 ($209,600 with buyer’s premium) was one of the most popular Tiffany Studios items at auction, the Peony table lamp. This version was fitted with an adjustable Library Standard ‘cat’s paw’ base and was dated to around 1910. From the collection of Viola and William Rosenberg and then by descent (along with the following lots), the lamp entered the auction with a $60,000-$80,000 estimate, thus doubling its anticipated high.

Two Tiffany Studios vases also overperformed. A covered jar decorated with Japanese maple branches dated to around 1905 and had an estimate of $15,000-$20,000. Bidding eclipsed the high estimate in only a few rounds, with the final hammer reaching an astounding $100,000 ($131,000 with buyer’s premium).

Described by Rago as “exceptional,” a circa-1915 Tiffany Studios paperweight exhibition vase decorated with morning glories featured hand-blown favrile glass in a 6in-tall presentation. Estimated at $25,000-$30,000, it nearly doubled its high estimate when it sold for $55,000, or $72,050 with buyer’s premium.
