Description: This is a fine museum quality Tiffany Studios Reproduction of their rare White Wisteria Leaded Glass Shade. Considered to be one of the lamps with the Irregular Upper and Lower Border shades, Dr. Neustadt, in his book, "The Lamps of Tiffany" states "In conception, as well as workmanship, these shades represent the apogee of all Tiffany's creative accomplishments". "Infinitely delicate in design, the standard Wisteria is made up of more than a thousand small pieces of painstakingly selected glass in highly complicated, meticulously cut, curved shapes". This particular White Wisteria shade actually has 1,930 pieces of glass in it, primarily Youghiogheny, Uroborus and Bullseye glass. They flow down from the bronze tree branch crown and are supported by bronze branches running through the leaded glass leaves down the sides of the glass shade to its very irregular lower border. This shade also features the rounded corners from the Bronze crown to the sides of the shade. The original Tiffany Wisteria Shades and Lamps were the design of one of Tiffany's Girls, Clara Driscoll who also designed the Dragonfly Shades. The shade is 18 inches in diameter and a bit over 15 inches tall and weighs at over 20 pounds. The shade is pictured on a base to show the lit lamp, however, only the shade is in this listing. If you have a base, this may well be the shade for you. If you look at my other listings, there is also a base that goes with this shade if you need one.
