Another pattern by Paulding Farnham, Tiffany introduced Renaissance in 1905.This was Farnham's most detailed and ornate pattern. In the terminal of each piece is an armless female figure in high relief mounted on a pedestal. The pedestal of each is decorated with cascading flowers or fruits and vegetables.
In the entire pattern there are five different motifs. While in most of the pieces, flowers, fruits, and vegetables are used in the design. The design continues a intricate incorporation of flora and fauna in different pieces. For example, the fish eating knife and olive fork have sea shells, seaweed, and a fish in the design. The Meat carving knife and fork have a boar's head in the design with the flowers.The dinner knife has ram's head in with the floral design. The Game carving knife and fork feature a deer's head with antlers in the design.
This was also Farnham's last flatware pattern. What a way to go out.
