16" Fish

The 16" Fish is a boldly designed shade that features five Koi fish in a rhythmic dance. Created for a client in Omaha, Nebraska the shade is shown on the Lummis base (19" tall).

A lively mix of mottled, streaky and ripple textured glasses blend together, enhancing the movement of the design. Jewel-like tones of green, orange and teal give depth to the shade.

Filigree overlays are an important design element of this shade. Fins and tails on the fish are accentuated by the etched brass filigree, giving the shade a distinctly Oriental feel. Filigree is used in a handful of Tiffany lamp designs including the Fish, Dragonfly and Poppy shades. Tiffany Studios also employed filigrees in a wide variety of desk sets.

 

16" Tulip

 

We recently completed several projects including an 18 Light Lily Table Lamp for a client in Washington, DC (not shown) and this 16" Tulip for a client in Brooklyn, New York.

Supported by a backdrop of lush foliage tulips in a variety of colors cover the shade. Our client chose the distinctive Square Turtleback base to go with this shade. Each of the four sides of the base is inset with a large pressed glass turtleback tile. An interior light illuminates the base.
