About Edward C. Moore at Tiffany & Co. 2024 Met Exhibition
The Met presents this scarf in celebration of Collecting Inspiration: Edward C. Moore at Tiffany & Co. This exhibition, on view at The Met Fifth Avenue from June 9 to October 20, 2024, showcases the profound design influence of Moore, a prodigious collector of decorative arts, a noted silversmith, and the creative force who led Tiffany & Co. to unparalleled heights of originality and success during the second half of the 19th century. Through over 180 extraordinary creations bequeathed to the Museum from Moore's collection, alongside 70 magnificent silver objects designed at Tiffany & Co. under his direction, Collecting Inspiration considers Moore's pivotal role in shaping the legendary Tiffany design aesthetic—and the evolution of The Met collection.
