A Brilliant Collection: Hindman to Present Tiffany Studios, Daum and Thomas Webb Glass from Estate of Madelyn Marley

Hindman is pleased to present an impressive collection of early 20^th century American and European glass from the Estate of Madelyn Marley, Yakima, Washington in its May 23^rd Early 20^th Century Design auction. Marley (1899-2000) developed a passion for nature and the outdoors, stemming in part from her family’s ownership of a successful orchard business in Yakima. She became a keen collector of early 20^th century glass and was particularly drawn to the scenic and floral vases of Daum, the artistry of Tiffany Studios glass, and the delicate carving and brilliant colors of Thomas Webb cameo glass.

With over 60 lots, the collection features premiere examples by Tiffany Studios, Daum, Gallé and Thomas Webb. Highlights include a Tiffany Studios Cypriote vase (estimate: Lot 3; $15,000-$25,000) and a Webb Cameo vase (Lot 18; estimate: $10,000-15,000).
