A few highlights in the American antique genre are 19th century works by Tiffany & Co. brought to Baltimore by Antique Cupboard of Big Bend, Wisconsin. With an Art Nouveau leaf and swirl pattern, inlaid copper design and applied stylized swan handles, Tiffany’s sterling two-handle vase is hallmarked with the 1893 Chicago Columbian Exposition stamp. Another Tiffany offering from Antique Cupboard was inspired by the purchase of the Alaskan territory and features designs of Alaskan exploration circa the 1870s.

Perry was a notable painter of genre, landscapes and portraits who enjoyed prestige in Europe and the U.S. During his time in San Francisco, he was patronized by society which included Mrs. George Hearst, Collis P. Huntington, Leland Stamford and of course, Henry Tiffany Scott.
