Tiffany Studios Curtain Border Floor Lamp

Tiffany Studios 24" Curtain Border shade, on a decorated Senior Floor Base. Circa 1910

The Curtain Border is a striking geometric design that takes its name from the distinctive draped motif along the lower edge of the shade, evoking the appearance of a drawn curtain. This example features a rich emerald green mottled glass body arranged in a geometric grid pattern, with the signature curtain border executed in warm amber and caramel-toned glass strips that hang vertically along the lower rim — separated from the green body by a narrow band of golden yellow. The contrast between the deep green dome and the warm amber fringe creates a dramatic visual effect, particularly when illuminated. Mounted on a tall Senior Floor Base with a pigtail shaped bronze finial at the top, the lamp stands approximately 80 inches, making it a commanding presence in any interior.
