The Metropolitan Museum of Art Store has introduced a new summer lineup of scarves inspired by floral details drawn from the glass works of Louis C. Tiffany and Agnes F. Northrop. In an email titled 'Just In: New Scarves Inspired by Louis C. Tiffany,' the store presents the pieces as part of a broader seasonal selection of accessories and gifts, with the featured designs anchored in imagery from Tiffany Studios.
The email frames the launch as a retail update rather than an exhibition announcement, and its focus is squarely on merchandise available through The Met Store. Among the items called out are the 'Louis C. Tiffany Garden Landscape Neckerchief' and the 'Louis C. Tiffany Peonies Oblong Silk Scarf.' The store also links the new scarves to related products, including the 'Laurelton Hall Mosaic Necklace and Earrings Set,' the 'Louis C. Tiffany Garden Landscape Notecards,' the 'Gilded Age Daffodil Brooch,' and the 'Louis C. Tiffany Favrile Motifs Glass Coasters.'
The source material identifies the visual references used for the scarves. One image caption cites '3-part garden landscape window for Linden Hall (detail),' made in 1912 by Agnes F. Northrop at Tiffany Studios. Another links a scarf design to 'Floor Lamp' from 1904–15, designed by Louis C. Tiffany at Tiffany Studios. Those references situate the store’s new products in the decorative art and stained-glass legacy associated with Tiffany and his studio.
The Met Store describes the line as an exuberant set of 'summer must-haves,' and its newsletter presentation places the scarves among categories such as jewelry, stationery, clothing, home decor, and best sellers. The store also points readers to a broader 'New Arrivals' section for the season, suggesting the Tiffany-inspired items are part of a wider merchandising push rather than a standalone release.
The email closes with a standard support statement noting that purchases support The Met's collection, study, conservation, and presentation of 5,000 years of art. It also includes a promotional note about holiday cards, stating that buyers can save 50% on the second box, with the offer available in-store and online. The scarves themselves are the central new items in the message, presented as fresh additions to the store’s design-led inventory.
