I don't see how L.C. Tiffany could have started producing glass in 1848 since he was born in 1848. Maybe his father (the founder of Tiffany's) produced the glass or maybe it is just a mistake. Please clarify/fix. 71.194.38.54 ( talk) 21:26, 31 December 2009 (UTC)Larry Siegel
This page constitutes a merger between a number of articles about various types of glass used by and/or created by Louis Comfort Tiffany. All these articles had been listed as Architecture or Glass (or something) related stubs. It seemed pointless to have technical info pertaining to one individual scattered over several articles, all very short.
I have not yet deleted anything, pending further discussion and critique of what I have done. I do not know what sources to cite, not having written the original articles, and suspecting that they were written by someone with first-hand experience and technical expertise rather than scholarship on the particular topic.

The Gadsden Hotel in Douglas, Arizona has a Tiffany glass window - could be added to list on this page. Google for photos and details. Cloudshadow ( talk) 00:36, 5 August 2017 (UTC)
Hi - I'm ok with you stating whatever on this page, I admit the sources aren't too strong on this topic. But fyi, the Grand Central official website is written by a marketing department, not historians, and they've included things that have been debunked by historians. Will look more into this topic... ɱ (talk) 22:25, 26 December 2020 (UTC)
I believe it was Tiffany & Co., and that they stated it was not a work of Tiffany Studios either. Will hope they release an official statement. ɱ (talk) 04:01, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
Fellow Wikipedians, I am in the process of writing a book on the General Bronze Corporation. In doing so, and researching the addition of General Bronze Corporation to Wikipedia, I have uncovered two excellent sources of information from the two museums which are a repository for Tiffany's work: the Amon Carter Museum of American Art and Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art. Additionally, excellent book references identifying the specific name changes of Tiffany/Nash, Tiffany alone, or Tiffany with Nash subsidiaries is found in the book, " Behind the Scenes of Tiffany Glassmaking: The Nash Notebooks". It seems that Tiffany (or whoever partnered with him in that specific year) changed the legal name of his "entity" frequently (SEE History and establishment under General Bronze Corporation). Both the Amon Carter Museum of American Art in Texas, and the The Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art in Florida have excellent archivists, and also extremely helpful. Also, see the chronology of tiffany Studios at Tiffany Chronology. This book on Roman Bronze Works shares information among Tiffany/Roman Bronze works/General Bronze, since all three were intermarried: A Century of American Sculpture: The Roman Bronze Works Foundry by Lucy Rosenfeld. The Queens Historical Society was also helpful and directed me to the aforementioned. The were quite knowledgeable on Tiffany's Glass world. As always, it is best keeping sources per Wikipedia guidelines. Cheers, Eli Bigeez ( talk) 19:00, 17 January 2024 (UTC)
