Louis Comfort Tiffany, son of the founder of Tiffany & Co, Charles Lewis Tiffany, followed his own path to success, achieving worldwide fame for his designs of stained glass lamps and windows. When he became Tiffany’s first official design director in 1902, he established the Tiffany Artistic Jewelry department in the Fifth Avenue store where his jewelry and precious objects were manufactured. At the height of the Art Nouveau period in Europe and America, his elegant jewelry designs were inspired by a love of nature and exotic Middle Eastern cultures. Fueled by the exposure they received in several international expositions, Tiffany�´s jewelry designs became popular around the world.
