The firm was founded in 1901 by Martin Bach Sr, Thomas Johnson, Nicholas Bach, Lena Scholtz, and Adolph Demuth, many of them former Tiffany employees. Their work was notable for its use of bold iridescent colors, such as blue, gold, purple, and green. Quezal was considered real competition for Tiffany and as Quezal kept its production limited compared to their contemporaries, surviving pieces are sometimes hard to come by.
