Chrysanthemum by Tiffany

There are many Chrysanthemum patterns in sterling silver. I mentioned several in an earlier post on Chrysanthemum patterns. Tiffany's Chrysanthemum was designed by Charles Grosjean in 1880. Grosjean is also known for his design of the well known "Lap over Edge" mixed metal patterns for Tiffany.

On the very tip of the terminal of this pattern, you will find a Chrysanthemum flower open with the petals hanging down. The stem and terminal are covered with a design of petals and leaves. There is an open space on the terminal for engraving. This is a truly beautiful pattern and timeless given it is 133 years old.
