Q. Does the Rakow Research Library have Tiffany Studios/Tiffany Glass and Decorating Company archives?

Papers related to Louis Comfort Tiffany and his firms are scattered, so a number of libraries and collectors hold primary source materials. The collection at the Rakow Research Library at the Corning Museum of Glass includes a number of documents and drawings related to Tiffany Studios, Tiffany Glass and Decorating Co., and Tiffany Furnaces (Corona, NY). Documents highlighting some of these materials are attached. (Note: People interested in Tiffany & Co. archives, should visit the company's Frequently Asked Questions page for more information.)

The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art, in Winter Park, Florida, is a rich source of Tiffany materials, including works by Louis Comfort Tiffany (1848–1933),  and archival sources such as letters, photographs, business records and other documentation.  Read more about their Tiffany collection.

In addition to Tiffany-related documents, photographs, prints, drawings, and ephemera held in the Rakow Research Library's collection, the attached guide to documents and archival collections also includes a non-comprehensive list of other institutions, including the Morse Museum, that hold similar kinds of Tiffany materials.
