Sterling Silver Coaster Tiffany and Co
Designed by Charles Grosjean (1841-1888). Grosjean worked in his family's firm which produced high end silverware to prominent New York City retailers, including Tiffany. Upon his father's death, Grosjean left his family firm to become superintendent of Tiffany's silver factory in 1868. He had great background in silver and was an artist and was referred to as "one of the best living decorators of silver". He was a teacher in the Tiffany School and designed a few full lines of sterling patterns for Tiffany in his short time with the company before his unfortunate and sudden death. His patterns Chrysanthemum (formally Indian Chrysanthemum) and English King are some of the most famous of his designs, and of Tiffany in general. Gorgeous Chrysanthemum by Tiffany and Co sterling silver champagne coaster marked #5723/1512. This piece measures 1 7/8" tall x 6 1/4" and weighs 11.8 troy ounces. It is not monogrammed and is in good vintage condition. Absolutely beautiful!
