A Tiffany Studios New York "Swirling Leaf Geometric" Chandelier.
This Tiffany Studios New York "Swirling Leaf Geometric" leaded glass and patinated bronze chandelier, consists of a dynamic shade with Louis Comfort Tiffany's famed geometric brick design in an ombre of bright to mottled light yellow hues. Interrupted at its girdle by an intriguing band of vined leaf motifs in bright yellow, the addition of splashes of green dappled behind them bring them to life. The swirling leaf patterning dynamically mimics the shape and implied movement of a pinwheel, paired with a patinated bronze ball fringe that provides more movement at the base of the shade, suggesting that the vegetation is about to spin about the lamp as it disperses beautiful light. With custom made Tiffany style reproduction hanging hardware.
