Founder of the great New York–based retail and design operation (1812–1902) that became legendary for its spectacular jewelry and decorative wares in metal, glass, and other materials. Rare original 4.25 x 6.5 cabinet bust portrait of Tiffany captioned, “Feby 15th 1892, My eightieth birthday,” and floridly signed at the bottom of the image in black ink, “C. L. Tiffany.” Published by Sarony of New York. Subtle scattered foxing and various edge dings, otherwise fine condition. Tiffany is uncommon and desirable in any format, but signed photos are particularly scarce. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
