Overview
An impressive Tiffany-style table lamp featuring a vibrant green leaded glass shade adorned with a repeating dragonfly motif and red glass cabochons. The heavy, sculptural base is uniquely detailed with cast metal dragonflies resting on a green glass mosaic tile ground. This piece beautifully emulates Louis Comfort Tiffany's iconic Art Nouveau designs, bringing a warm, organic glow to any interior.
Story
In 1899, Clara Driscoll, head of the Tiffany Girls, designed the first dragonfly lamp, revolutionizing decorative lighting. This modern tribute captures that exact magic, turning industrial materials into a glowing, living garden.
Maker / Origin
While original Tiffany Studios lamps were made in New York over a century ago, high-quality revival makers like Dale Tiffany and Meyda Tiffany emerged in the late 20th century. These workshops revived the labor-intensive copper foil technique to make these legendary, museum-quality designs accessible to modern homeowners.
Condition & Value
The lamp appears to be in excellent condition with no visible cracks to the leaded glass panels or missing mosaic tiles on the base. The lead lines show a consistent dark patina, and the electrical components appear modern and functional. Excellent condition for these revival pieces helps them retain maximum resale value.
