Dear Laura Dickstein,

Have you called Tiffany expert Alastair Duncan, a consultant at Christie's? The
number I have for him is 212.348.7829. What about Tiffany & Co.? Their
archivist was Janet Zapata, at 201.428.8600, though that was several years ago.
If there's a new person, you can getit from the main number in NY. Another
avenue is the Neustadt Museum of Tiffany Art in NY at 212.874.0872. Again,
these are numbers from several years ago.

I hope this is useful.
