A milestone in the history of lighting design, Louis Comfort Tiffany introduced Lily Table Lamps in the 1890’s, showing the world what could be created with an electric light bulb and some imagination. This illuminated sculpture is inspired by a cluster of water lilies, with the lustre glass flowers nodding gently above the bronze lily pads and buds. Even the light bulb was incorporated into the design, forming the stamen of each blossom.
We have just completed this 12 Light Lily Table Lamp, which is available for purchase in our showroom. At Century Studios, our reproduction Tiffany Lily Lamps are created in our studio. The lower portion of the lamp is cast in bronze and the metalwork is finished with an authentic verdigris patina. Each Lily Lamp comes with mouth-blown gold lustre shades, which give a pleasant warm glow. The switch for the lamp is one of the lily pads on the base.
