Bursting with colorful flowers, the 18″ Oriental Poppy is a delightfully complex Tiffany lamp design. Three horizontal border rows barely contain the exuberant blooms as they create a three dimensional vista of color. This example, created in 2014 for a local client, has an explosion lush red and orange poppies set against vibrant blues, purples,…
The 22″ Geometric shade is a large, impressive shade that can be created in any coloration. For this piece, we began with a deep red at the top and gently shifted the color to a rich amber tone at the bottom. The brickwork positioning of the glass tiles gives the shade a stable appearance. This…
With its lush foliage and fully ripened grapes, the 18″ Grape is one of Tiffany Studios’ most successful lamp designs. The shade begins with a cast bronze crown of open branches at the top that mates with the sturdy Tree Trunk base (23″ tall). The glass continues the flow of the branchwork and cascades downwards,…
The 16″ Snowball shade is the tabletop version of the large 24″ Snowball dome. The unusually deep shape of the shade is accentuated by the undulations of the lower edge, giving the shade a natural feel. For this piece, we chose a stunning blue glass for the sky. The flowers and leaves are a lively…
The Mermaid with Nautilus Shell lamp depicts a bronze double-tailed mermaid riding the crest of a wave while holding a lit nautilus shell above her head. Tiffany Studios used the nautilus shade on a few different bases, but this has always been the most coveted shade/base combination. The color of the shade gently shifts from…
The 16″ Pomegranate features a decorative border of eighteen pomegranates that encircle the shade in pleasant repetition. The amber tone of the shade plays off of the green glaze of the 7 Handled Pottery base. The lamp base is from our discontinued line of Grueby style pottery bases (see our post from October 15, 2020)….
With its intricate piecework and the suggestion of movement, the 22″ Elaborate (or Windswept) Peony is aptly named. The generous scale of the shade allows the glass artist to explore the Impressionistic nature of the design. As a challenge to ourselves, we decided to make this lamp with a two sided color scheme. One side…
This past week we went to our foundry to drop off waxes for upcoming projects and pick up the bronze castings that were completed. Our foundry is an hours drive in both directions from the studio. Since reopening after a several month state mandated shutdown of all non essential businesses this past spring, the foundry…
The 14″ Geranium is a compact shade that elevates this ubiquitous summertime potted plant to star status. For this example cheerful red flowers pop against the sunny yellow background. A wide variety of mottled and rippled green glasses with an undercurrent of red are used for the distinctive foliage. We created this lamp for a…

For this 16″ Geometric with Squares we chose a light butter yellow glass with a soft mottle for the main body of the shade. The accent rows at the…
