Lamp of the Week: 28" Dragonfly

The 28" Dragonfly (flying diagonal) is a Tiffany shade design full of energy and excitement. The swirling dragonflies dance across the jewel encrusted surface with rhythmic precision. Created in 1996, this shade is made almost entirely out of Lins glass with pressed glass jewels by Century Studios. Inspired by the sheets of glass, the color pallet of the shade is a lively mix of greens, purples and deep red tones. Intense blue in both the glass and jewels is used as an surprising accent color throughout the piece. The shade is in a local collection.
