Title: Tiffany style Lamp
Post by: sreyomac on September 21, 2012, 09:34:10 PM

This is probably not antique , rather just vintage. I love it tho, its less yellow in real life and more cream....

If its a Genuine one then...hold on to your Hat!.....but these lampshades are one of the most copied...and its in China where 90% of all the copying is done...then they are exported back to the west....

These were popular in the '70s. They were often mounted over pool tables or in kitchens.

In fact, they were sometimes made of plastic pieces rather than glass, so if you've got a glass one you're a bit ahead of the game!

I spoke with my mom about this light today and she said that my aunt and uncle had them made around 70-72....It is glass. They had three made, mine, a dark blue one with a colorful butterfly (BEAUTIFUL), and this one mom my has.
