The Tiffany lamp has been a staple of décor in North America since about 1895. They are thought to be part of the Art Nouveau movement. The leaded, stained, glass shade is Tiffany’s most, popular lamp shade. Many notable people have had innovative, genuine, Tiffany lamps in their offices and homes. Modern designers even understand the value that a Tiffany lamp can bring to a business and personal décor.     

There are several benefits to owning a Tiffany lamp. They are hand crafted art from stained glass so they become family heirlooms since there are no two that are exactly alike. They can also transform the décor of a room instantly because the light shining through all of the different colors of glass diffuses in every direction; other lamp shades are likely to darken the lamp’s light. Tiffany Lamps are made in several designs that can enhance all designer decors. A quality reproduction has the same traits of the first lamps that were designed for candle light.     

The stained glass used in Tiffany lamps is not made the same as it was in the past. Louis Comfort Tiffany created a stained glass in which the colors were ingrained into the glass and had its very own unique coloring instead of colors being melted or painted on the glass. Mister Tiffany enjoyed classic Victorian design; he was raised in that era. Still, it was his Dragonfly design that made his lamps so highly desirable. The floral and Wisteria patterns were also very stunning. These vintage lamps continue to be reproduced and refinished along with the well known Missions design.
