Handcrafted Glass Lampshade

This lamp is made using the original Tiffany style of hand cut glass, lied with copper and soldered together. There are 420 separate pieces of glass in this lampshade. The dragonfly wings are an intricate design with many small pieces. The black solder contrasts strongly with the white wings and the vivid aqua and blue. It has some interesting red, blue and green glass jewels or cabochons in the lamp shade which make the lamp sparkle.  Each lamp is slightly different as the combination of different colours of glass give each item a unique finish.

Solid Resin Base

The base on this lamp is solid resin finished in a bronze colour. It has a dragonfly design, which is different to the more common tree design. It is heavy and substantial – not tinny and  easy to knock over. It is a good idea to make sure the base does not get dusty, as the dark resin shows up the dust.

 

Two Pull Chain Operation

The lamp is operated by two small on off pull chains which are easy to work. The lamp takes two 60 watt globes. Try and find LED bulbs to reduce energy use. The advantage of two globes is that if you want dimmer light you can switch only one lamp on, and you can have a nice softer illumination, say for reading. If you want to brighten up the room, and throw some stained glass colour on the wall you can use both globes and position the lamp in the best spot to show off.

Size

This lamp is 24 inches high and 16 inches at it’s widest diameter. The base is approximately eight inches wide. The lampshade is a decent size and well proportioned to the height of the stand.

What we like about Warehouse of Tiffany WHT008 Dragonfly Lamp

This Warehouse of Tiffany lamp really does evoke the style of the great Tiffany Studio. It is a different take on the dragonfly design, but has all the traditional styling clues. The lamp has a rich blue color palette, with contrasting white, lavender and red.

We really love the dragonfly motif that has been extended in to the resin base. With a bronze tinge, this base base looks great.

What We Don’t Like About Warehouse of Tiffany WHT008 Dragonfly Lamp

The quality of this is quite good, however it is not at like an original Tiffany. It would be great if there is a matching floor lamp. The lamp is not super super bright.
