TIFFANY STUDIOS ENAMELED SPANISH DESK SET. Seven piece desk set includes two tier paper rack, inkwell, notepad, cedar lined cigarette box and blotter ends. Entire set has a wonderful gold dore, time darkened finish with enamel accents. This pattern is considered by many collectors to be the best of all Tiffany desk set patterns and pieces are even shown on the cover of the book “Tiffany Desk Treasures” by Kemeny & Miller. The central design of the Spanish pattern depicts medieval decoration with animals that blend into decorative accents, tails of fish-like creatures become frames at the top of the memo pad cover, tails of winged dragons blend into leafy foliage and turn into fish, dragons have wings instead of four legs and even the fish seem to have feathers. All of these creatures have opened mouths with tongues. Some pieces have repetitive patterns of urns while others have two nude children centrally located facing each other. The paper rack has arabesques in reference to Spain’s Moorish conquerors. The inkwell has unbelievable carved winged creatures in high relief. It is believed that the Spanish pattern is one of the last four designs created by Tiffany. All pieces are signed “Tiffany Studios New York” and are numbered. SIZE: Paper rack is 10″ x 7″.
