Pair of Vases, Red Room
The vases here come from two different pairs that decorated the mantel in the Red Room. The vase on the left is one of a pair of Satsuma vases purchased and placed on either side of the Red Room mantel which were replaced by the Tiffany vase on the right and its companion. This replacement happened when President Chester Arthur commissioned Louis C. Tiffany and Co./Associated Artists to execute major decorative work for most of the White House State Floor in 1882. The rooms Tiffany decorated were: the East Room, Blue Room, Red Room, Entrance Hall, and Cross Hall.
