Tiffany style stained glass lamp

The Tiffany style lamp is a design based on the original stained glass creations of Louis Comfort Tiffany and his studio in New York at the end of the 19th century. These lamps are characterized by their intricate patterns and vibrant colors, achieved through the copper foil technique. While the original Tiffany Studios ceased production in the 1930s, the design style remains iconic and is widely reproduced worldwide.

Modern 'Tiffany style' lamps like the one pictured are generally manufactured using similar manual techniques but are mass-produced. Most contemporary versions found in global markets are manufactured in China, though specialty artisan workshops still exist in the USA and Europe. Because 'Tiffany' is now a descriptive term for this artistic style rather than a single protected brand, ownership is fragmented across thousands of lighting manufacturers and distributors.
