Week 30: Jul. 28, 2024

Floor Lamp, Tiffany Studios, United States, 1902-1919, Glass and bronze

Lighting up, lighting down…

Tiffany lamps are always appealing to me, and I love that they have positioned this one in a setting with era-specific furniture and art. It gives them the means and excuse to display it plugged in, throwing light on the Arts and Craft Bookcase next to it. But what I chose to focus on is simply the glasswork and the colors. Spectacular.

I was limited by my own height in getting the downward angle on this that I truly wanted. It is atop a beautiful wooden Arts and Craft stand and on top of a platform. however, I like that it also captured the light coming out below the shade.
