Tiffany & Co. shares their partnership with The Met (The Metropolitan Museum of Art) that presents the exhibition Collecting Inspiration: Edward C. Moore at Tiffany & Co.. As a defining figure in the history of American silver and the creative force behind Tiffany & Co.’s iconic 19th-century design aesthetic, Edward C. Moore amassed a vast collection of decorative arts from Greek and Roman glass to Japanese baskets and metalwork from the Islamic world.
Whether you’re a history buff, art enthusiast, or simply exploring New York City, this exhibition (June 9 – October 20, 2024) is a must-see destination.
