CANDACE WHEELER BEES - Candace Wheeler (New York, 1827-1923) was one of the first women to work professionally in the decorative arts in America, and an early feminist. When occupations for woman were limited, Wheeler founded the Society of Domestic Arts, a non-profit geared to helping women turn domestic arts into financial independence. Her success led to a partnership with Louis C. Tiffany in a textile firm for home décor. Later, she began an all-woman design firm, Associated Artists, paving the way for women in a male-dominated field. This motif was inspired by Bees with Honeycomb.

LOUIS C. TIFFANY MAGNOLIA WINDOW - Louis C. Tiffany used drapery glass to create magnolia petals and employed lead lines as part of the window design, creating the twigs and branches. His designers, studied and took care to render nature realistically. This  lantern design is inspired by three window panels in the collection of the Charles Hosmer Morse Museum of American Art, in Winter Park, FL. They originally graced his home in New York City and later his Long Island estate, Laurelton Hall, serving as a transition between indoors and outdoors, bringing inside the magnolias Tiffany loved so much.
