A classic Tiffany Studios design, the 16″ Turtleback shade features a decorative band of hand cut “turtleback” tiles bookmarked by an upper and lower geometric ground. The richly mottled emerald green glass selected for the body of the shade provides a contrast to the sparkling tiles. The simplicity of the design is enhanced by the three dimensional jewel like quality of the turtleback band. Shown on the Small Stick base (20″ tall), this shade is in a private collection in Florida.
