Tiffany Studios New York Single "Stalactite" Pendant Favrile Glass Light Fixture
This Tiffany Studios New York single "Stalactite" drop pendant light fixture features an iridescent decor on its oblong, amber-hued Favrile glass shade. Hanging from a delicate crown of patinated bronze with a brass chain system, the closed shade is perfectly accented by the gold-pulled feather decorations that pull light simultaneously upward and downward through the shimmering design on the glass. The unique single-drop "Stalactite" suggests a light fixture that's minimal, but still makes quite a statement.
