3 comments about Louis Comfort Tiffany and Laurelton Hall: An Artist's Country Estate.
- I found this book very dry. I am a Tiffany fan and create Tiffany stained glass reproductions as a hobby. I think anyone who is not already a devotee should think twice about this book. I really doesn't add much to the information already out there. Cut and paste literature at best.
- This is an excellent and scholarly book filled with incredible photos and descriptions of LCT's home, Laurelton Hall. The author has written a series of fine chapters that look at all aspects of this magnificent residence. What the fire at Laurelton destroyed, this book restores with words and photos. For all of you who love Tiffany's artistry, this book is not to be missed!
- Nicely put together and informative for those who are seriously interested in the life and works of Louis Comfort Tiffany.

1 comments about Mauzy's Kitchen Glass (Schiffer Book for Collectors).
- After absolutely loving Mauzy's Depression Glass book this one was such a huge disappointment. The pictures are huge, many 1/2 a page, which seems was done to make the book appear more meaty.
Many of the green pieces are labeled as "unknown manfacturers", almost comical is a row of tumblers and sherbets (another row of vases) listed as "various manufacturers". That section of the book seems like they went to someone's house and just pictured each piece.
The coverage of salt and pepper shakers is quite good, almost as if that is what the book really was before adding "fluff" items. Very little information (such as dates) is given, though.
With the little information given, I just don't trust the prices as being any guideline whatsoever. Disappointed.
Update: I found the prices listed are 5 to 10 times realistic pricing, even for the fanciest shops. Even more disappointed now, it has cost me money.
