Tiffany Style

Types of Tiffany Lamps

There are three different types of Tiffany style lamps, read on to learn what they are and what makes each one different.

A Tiffany Style lamp is a lamp that has been designed to look like or similar to the famous Tiffany lamps. Many of these lamps use stained glass instead of the costly colored glass to create some of the same designs as the original Tiffany lamps. Basically a Tiffany style lamp is any lamp that looks similar too or uses a similar manufacturing style but is not an authentic Tiffany Lamp.

Tiffany Style Lamps

These are the lamps most commonly found in Wal-mart or other discount stores. They typically have some sort of a floral designed painted onto the back side of the glass. Some Tiffany style lamps will even have an authentic Tiffany design painted onto a solid glass lamp shade. These lamps look nice but can never compare to an authentic Tiffany Lamp. If both were set side by side even the worst amateur could tell them apart.

Tiffany Style Replicas

Tiffany style replicas are the middle ground of the Tiffany Style lamps. Many manufacturers of these lamps will use multiple pieces of stained glass but instead of using the copper foil method they will solder the pieces of glass together. This technique, though it looks similar to the copper foil method from a distance, is not nearly as durable. Where the copper formed around each piece of glass, encasing it – this method only runs in between each piece of glass. Within a few years the solder gives and pieces of glass can fall out.

A newly crafted Tiffany style replica could resemble a Tiffany lamp to the untrained eye. After a few years though the Tiffany lamp will continue to hold its shape, solder and glass. Not to mention over time stain peels off of glass, especially if the lamp is used often or is placed in direct sunlight. Whereas the colored glass of the Tiffany lamps will never fade.

Tiffany Lamp Replicas

A few of the Tiffany style lamp manufacturers make their lamps in similar means as the original Tiffany lamps. These lamps are usually marketed as Tiffany Replicas though. These manufacturers will purchase or make their own colored glass, cut it by hand and use as many of the original style tools as possible. Some of these companies even work on authentic lamp restoration, replacing any broken glass with modern matching glass.

Depending on your budget and style any one of these lamp styles could be perfect for you. If you want the beauty of an authentic Tiffany lamp but do not have a few million dollars to pay for one, your best bet is to go with a Tiffany Lamp Replica.

Tiffany lamps, as well as many other lighting decor for the home, can add beauty and style as well as provide light.
