Original Tiffany lamps made by Tiffany Studios during the end of the nineteen century and the beginning of the twentieth century are indeed

Tiffany Lamp

pieces of art.   These lamps were hand designed and made with top quality materials.  Indeed, the stained glass used for each Tiffany lamp shade was hand cut to precisely fit the lamp shade design where the stained glass pieces were going to be used on the lamp shade.  However, the Tiffany lamps made at Tiffany Studios sell for many thousands of dollars, and are considered antiques.


Genuine Tiffany reproduction lamps are made with the intention of having them look just like the original Tiffany lamps.  These reproduction lamps are available to consumers at prices many consumers may afford.  Several factors consumers may wish to consider prior to purchasing a Tiffany reproduction lamp follow:

1.  Is the lamp hand crafted?

2.  Does the lamp shade have real stained glass of high quality?

3.  Does the stained glass emit light well?

4.  Have the individual pieces of glass that comprise the Tiffany lamp shade been precisely put together?

5.  Have the individual pieces of glass that comprise the Tiffany lamp shade been neatly foiled to bond the pieces of stained glass together?

6.  Has the Tiffany lamp shade been hand soldered?

7.  Is the stained glass polished on the Tiffany lamp shade?

8.  Does the Tiffany reproduction lamp have a high quality base?

Consumers who are considering purchasing a Tiffany reproduction lamp may wish to consider these questions prior to purchase, as many choices of Tiffany style lamps are available with much variance in the quality of lamps for sale.  Thus, consumers who purchase  a genuine Tiffany lamp reproduction will not only be purchasing lighting, but a piece of art.
