The Art of making Tiff any style lamps
T e skilled artisans trace out the pattern
from a template then hand cut the art glass.
Each piece of glass is then ground to f t the
shape of the mosaic pattern required.
Each piece of art glass is then cleaned and
copper foiled.
Flux is then applied to the copper foil and
each mosaic piece is put into place within
the f bre glass mould.
T e shade is then soldered together on the
inside with lead solder, and again on the
outside to strengthen construction.
An authentic Bronze patina is applied to the
solder, it is then hand waxed to protect the
solder from oxidisation. It is then polished to
give a lustrous f nish.
Exquisite investments
of today – cherished
heirlooms of tomorrow
Art glass can be more expensive than crystal
glass. All Quoizel Tif any collectibles are
made of art glass and the shades in the
Elstead collection have between 44 to 632
pieces. T e average shade takes 80 hours
to create by skilled artisans. Nothing adds
colour to a room quite like Tif any lighting.
Taking care of
Quoizel Tiff any
Never use chemicals to clean your art
glass. Use a damp cloth only to remove
any excess oil. Use linseed oil on the solder
to maintain the lustre after cleaning.
