Favrile glass is a term originally used as a trade name for art glass produced at Tiffany Furnaces, a glassmaking factory owned by Louis Comfort Tiffany. The term is now used to describe the type of iridescent glass Tiffany produced there. First produced in the United States by Tiffany, this kind of lustred glass was invented by Arthur J. Nash, inspired by the iridescence of corroded glassware unearthed from Roman ruins. Wikipedia →
