|1908 Studios Dragonfly Floor Lamp Review
This sophisticated Dragonfly Floor lamp has been lovingly made using techniques first developed by Louis Comfort Tiffany from the Tiffany Studio. It pays homage to the beauty and style of that design house and this piece is an accurate representation of a Tiffany Dragonfly Floor lamp, with a modern twist.

The lamp shade comprises hand cut shards of stained glass which have each been wrapped in fine copper foil. The workmanship on this lamp is impressive. The lamp has lots of tones of blue and red and green and yellow. It is quite a vivid look; bright and colourful. The pieces of glass are fitted precisely and a dragonfly design is outstanding. Then wings look great. There are glass beads incorporated into the design which gives it a ‘bejeweled’ look. It really is smart. The overall look is one of exciting colour lit up magnificently by the two light bulbs. It will take your breath away – light on coloured glass – puts a smile on every face.
1908 Studios Dragonfly Floor Lamp Specifications
The floor lamp stands an impressive 60 inches and has a diameter of 18 inches. It has twin pull chain switches that are unobtrusive. The pull chains are a little unique feature that you do not get with many lamps – most are press button, or in the case of floor lamps, foot button!
The lamp uses two 60 watt bulbs. We recommend a low wattage LED light bulbs for durability and energy consumption. Some people put in a slightly dimmer bulb for when you want the dimmer light in the room, just the one dim bulb can give a pleasant low light atmosphere.
The base is solid metal with a bronze finish and anchors the lamp very well. The lamp is sold by Serena d’Italia and available on Amazon now.
What Do Customers think of the Stained Glass Dragonfly Floor Lamp
Overall they have given an average of 4.6 stars. This is a good score, for sure.
Customer feedback is quite universal – this is a stunning looking lamp and pretty much all who have purchased have been pleased they had done so. One reviewer said:
“Well-constructed and shipped. This is the 5th or 6th Tiffany-styled lamp I’ve ordered from these folks over the past 7 or 8 years. They are lovely lamps that work consistently well and I would recommend.”
Another reviewer said:
“A really pretty lamp! The colors are very vibrant and clear, and it’s NOT plastic as some commenters have claimed. It’s a great reading lamp height – I wanted a lamp to put next to my couch that was a bit taller (so I’d be relying on the light under the glass shade, not the much dimmer light coming through the shade). I was also looking for something that wasn’t very bland and Ikea-like.”
How Sturdy is the 1908 Studios Dragonfly Floor Lamp?
Very sturdy, metallic base, heavy enough to withstand the inevitable bumps. Customers have reported that they do not fear knocking it over.
Does the hang below the shade of the Tiffany style dragonfly floor lamp?
No, they don’t hang too low. Ordinary bulbs will come close to hanging below the shade, but not quite. You can instead look to obtaining some low profile LED light bulbs that are less bulky and will not hang too far down.
