Description

This is a book for the Sotheby's auction catalog sale held in New York on December 15, 2012 for Masterworks by Tiffany Studios from the Geyer Family Collection , covering 60 lots in 68 pages. All lots illustrated in color. Excellent condition. Here is what Sotheby's had to say about its sale: "Sotheby’s is pleased to announce that it will offer Masterworks by Tiffany Studios from the Geyer Family Collection over the course of three sales in fall 2012, spring 2013 and summer 2013. Their first sale on 15 December 2012 is comprised of more than 60 lots by Tiffany Studios, all collected and amassed by the Geyer Family, who are renowned for their discerning eye and a connoisseur’s approach to collecting. Over a span of 40 years, Burton and Paula Geyer have assembled one of the finest private collections of works by Tiffany Studios, with a special emphasis on museum-quality lamps and fancy goods. Starting in Brooklyn as schoolteachers, Mr. and Mrs. Geyer were enthusiastic collectors of Tiffany Studios works early on, often buying pieces on installment plans from top galleries. They learned from many of the pioneers of the Tiffany market, including Lillian Nassau, Gladys Koch, Beatrice Weiss and Simon Lieberman. Over the years, the Geyers slowly began assembling their impressive collection by combing auction houses, antique stores and galleries for the best of the best. "After 40 years of passionately collecting works by Tiffany Studios, our journey has not yet ended, and we continue to curate and refine our collection. However, we have simply run out of room, and we are reluctantly parting with aspects of our collection so that the next generation of enthusiasts can enjoy these rare and beautiful works, rather than keeping them stored away in boxes,” says Mr. Burton Geyer."
