If you’ve never seen a Tiffany Lamp, head to the Morse Museum of American Art, which houses the largest and most comprehensive collection of Tiffany designs worldwide. And it’s not just lamps – artist Louis Comfort Tiffany made great works of pottery, jewelry, furniture and blown glass. The Mediterranean style building is intimate enough to enjoy most works close-up, and yet large enough to house the fabulous Tiffany Chapel from the 1893 Chicago World’s fair.
