The radiant blooms defining these earrings are plucked from the "Daffodil" lamp produced by Tiffany Studios (American, 1902–32) around 1904–10. The daffodil appears to have been a popular Tiffany Studios subject over several decades, and archival photographs of the studio show real daffodils arranged on model shades, demonstrating how closely the artisans worked from nature. Now in The Met's American Wing, the lamp exhibits Louis C. Tiffany's (American, 1848–1933) enduring reverence for the natural world. 18K gold plate Enamel Cubic zirconia Pierced, with surgical steel ear posts 1 3/4''L x 1 1/8''W Clean with a damp cloth and dry with a soft, clean cloth Show more
