18" Peony

One of Tiffany Studios most successful and popular shade patterns is the 18" Peony. The turban shaped shade is covered in large blooms and is a perfect canvas for the glass artist to showcase exceptional glass.

For this shade, Irwin Terry chose an assortment of soft pink, green and light amber glasses, mixing them together in an Impressionist-style color scheme. Digging deep into our library of glass, the flowers feature glass made by the Lins and Schlitz glass foundries, both of which ended production in the 1990's.

Shown on the Mock Turtle base (21.5" tall), this shade has been sold and is now in a private collection on the West Coast.

 

14" Tulip

With their large petals and endless variety of colors, tulips were a favorite flower to be featured on lamps by Tiffany Studios. The 14" Tulip is a sweet pattern with a lot of movement.

To accentuate the movement in the design, Bill Campbell chose red and white rippled glass for the flowers set against a lightly textured grey/blue background. The background glass was made by the Lins Glass Foundry in the 1990's. The lively green leaves add springtime freshness to the shade.

The shade was mated with the Chinese base (16" tall). This lamp has been sold and is now in a private collection in Seattle.
