Unique Techniques Used
In Glass Lamp Shades
The first decade of the 20th
century was a time of experimen
tation with glass lamp shades.
While the name of Louis Com
fort Tiffany comes most readily
to mind, many other companies
such as Pairpoint of Bedford,
Massachusetts and the Handel
Company of Meriden, Connecti
cut were trying new techniques.
Considered the most unusual
were the “Puffy” shades created
by Pairpoint and the inside paint
ed shades of Handel.
They were mostly forgotten
until the revival of interest in Tif
fany shades during the 19705.
When they come to auction, they
can fetch up to $40,000 or more;
a fraction of a Tiffany shade. At
a recent auction of lamps and
glass one signed “Puffy” rose
table lamp sold under its estimate
of $4,000 $6,000 for $2,645. An
inside-painted Hanel shade sold
for $5,750.
McAlisterville, PA
Guns
Other examples of both went
unsold.
There were many makers of
Handel-style, reverse-painted
glass. They sell for far less.
At the Julia auction a Phoenix
reverse painted shade lamp sold
for $287.
The “puffy” shade was intro
duced for the first time in 1907.
Prior to that in 1904 it’s precur
sor was a line of electric lamps
named electroliers. They came
with a mold-blown, hand-decora
ted shade. What made them dif
ferent was the reverse painting
on the inside.
Before they were decorated the
outsides of the shades were
etched with acid to produce a
frosted surface. Each design had
a name and depicted a variety of
subjects. It was on July 9, 1907
that the company received a pat
ent for what was called “puffy”

shades. They are also referred to
as “blown out” shades.
Pairpoint was the only compa
ny to produce this type of shade.
Designs were usually fruit and
flowers. However a large shell
and an owl were also made,
according to existing catalogs..
The base of the owl lamp was a
full owl figure in metal, while the
shade dramatized the eyes and a
portion of the body.
“Puffy’s” continued being
made until 1915 when public
taste changed and they were out
of fashion, as were all things Vic
torian-influenced.
CLUES; Almost all “Puffy”
lamps are signed on the base.
Metal bases will also have the let

Since Tiffany lamps were ex
pensive even in their day, many
companies did their own ver
sions. Popular were striated glass
shades combined with raised
metal designs.
These, known as bent-glass
shades, were produced as both
hanging fixtures, table lamps and
standing. It was less expensive to
add a scenic design cast in metal
than to hand-paint a shade. The
answer was a cutaway brass band
with designs of houses, trees, and
so forth over a striated color
glass. The shades were of one
piece of glass held together by a
metal rim or many small striated
pieces, joined to the metal. These
shades can- even show up at
country auctions for a couple of
