The never fading beauty of the flowers covering the 25″ Rose Bush are a symbol of love, admiration and grace. This recently completed shade is installed as a chandelier fixture over a large dining table in a private Midwestern home.
Lush flowers cavort and tumble across this generously proportioned shade. Bill Campbell chose a lively mix of reds for the roses, and each bloom is composed of several different glasses that have been expertly blended together to give depth to each bloom. Study stems and lush foliage give a fullness to the design. The multicolored background includes blue, light amber, and peach, adding fullness to the look of the shade.
Irwin Terry is shown moving glass onto the form in preparation for soldering the shade. This photo gives a sense of the scale and shape of the shade.
Hybrid tea roses are not a common motif in Tiffany lamps, with Louis Tiffany and his designers preferring wild roses. This lamp design shows the grandeur and beauty of the rose in all its glory.
