Although Tiffany often wrote of his disdain for romanticizing the past, he recognized that many of his customers favored historical styles. He kept his showrooms well stocked with colonial revival furniture and lamps, such as the Napoleon-inspired <em>Empire</em> pattern, with its abstracted neoclassical swags and medallions, that fit easily within traditional decor.
