Attributed to Paulding Farnham, this tea service and tray was exhibited at both the 1900 Paris Exposition Universelle and the 1901 Buffalo Pan-American Exposition. A centerpiece bowl of the same design also was exhibited in 1900 in Paris, and sold from the Masco Collection at Sotheby's New York, January 20, 1998, lot 42. The Tiffany archives retain a design drawing for the coffee pot, and notes that the service was manufactured at a cost of $1,526.35.
