The 10″ Azalea is a small shade with a large personality. The design is segmented into sections by border rows, yet these can barely contain the exuberant foliage and flowers that fill the shade. The flowers are a lusty deep red while the leaves have a variety of mixed green tones. Blue sky peeks through…
A milestone in the history of lighting design, Louis Comfort Tiffany introduced lily table lamps in the 1890’s and showed the world what could be created with an electric light bulb and some imagination. This lamp is inspired by a cluster of water lilies, with the lustre glass flowers nodding gently above the bronze lily…

The heavily mottled, richly colored red & green glass of the upper and lower geometric portions of the shade are the perfect backdrop for the band of black cherry colored turtlebacks. This distinctive shade is shown on the popular Perforated base (26″ tall, telescopes taller). The…
Springtime daffodils were Louis Comfort Tiffany’s favorite flowers and he had banks of these sunny flowers lining the drive to his Long Island, New York estate.

One of Tiffany Studio’s more popular floral shade designs is the 20″ Daffodil. This is one of the few shade patterns where the flowers are inverted, rather than “growing” from the bottom of the shade. Having the flowers are clustered at the lower edge of the shade, the 20″ Daffodil makes a wonderful chandelier fixture….

At Century Studios we create both stained glass shades and bronze lamp bases. We purchased our core library of molds for metalwork from Studio Disselhoff in 1999 when owner Willy Disselhoff retired.
