Document source description

In 1894, Louis Comfort Tiffany patented his Art Nouveau glass as "Favrile glass," a term derived form fabrile (Old English for belonging to a craftsman). The distinctive, iridescent sheen on his wares was achieved by spraying metallic salts on to the surface of the glass while it was still in a molten state.
