In 1892, in Manhattan, the workshop of Louis Comfort Tiffany takes in a group of women known as the Tiffany girls, dedicated to creating Art Nouveau stained glass and lamps. Among them is Clara Wolcott Driscoll, a young widow presented as the maker of many of the pieces, and her ambition and talent drive the plot.
