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. From the beginning Quezal was considered the first real competition for Tiffany. Quezal kept its production limited compared to their contemporaries closing 1924. Even with a couple of decades worth of inventory, surviving pieces are sometimes hard to come by.
