Maybeck 2 Light Tiffany Floor Lamp - Valiant Bronze

The Maybeck is a 1578mm Tiffany-style floor lamp with a tapered art glass shade built from individual pieces of coloured glass arranged in a radiating staggered pattern. The shade combines blue, amber, cream and clear glass panels soldered into a bronze framework, with each panel cut to a different length to create the stepped edge visible from below. Two E27 bulb fittings inside the shade cast light through the coloured glass, producing a warm mosaic effect across walls and ceilings.

Designed for living rooms, studies and reading corners where both task and ambient light are needed, the Maybeck stands 1578mm tall with a 432mm diameter shade that projects light downwards and outwards without requiring a ceiling fitting. The valiant bronze finish on the cast metal base and column gives the lamp a substantial 8-9kg weight that keeps it stable on rugs and bare floors. The base footprint measures approximately 300mm square, fitting comfortably beside an armchair or sofa without encroaching on walking space.

Each Maybeck lamp uses hand-cut art glass, so the exact arrangement of blue, amber and cream tones varies between individual pieces depending on how the glass sheets were cut and assembled. This variation is inherent to Tiffany-style construction and means no two lamps are identical when lit. The bronze framework around each glass panel ages naturally over time, developing a darker patina in high-contact areas while the recessed sections retain the original finish tone.

The dual E27 fittings allow two bulbs to be installed for brighter output, or a single bulb can be used if softer ambient light is preferred. The lamp accepts any standard E27 LED, halogen or decorative filament bulb up to 60W per socket (bulbs sold separately). Most users pair the Maybeck with warm-white LED bulbs between 2700K-3000K to complement the amber and cream glass tones.

What bulbs does the Maybeck take?

The lamp has two E27 (Edison screw) fittings, each rated for bulbs up to 60W. Bulbs are sold separately. Warm-white LED bulbs between 6-10W and 2700K-3000K work well with the amber and cream glass tones in the shade.

Does the glass colour vary between lamps?

Yes. Each shade is assembled from hand-cut art glass panels, so the exact distribution of blue, amber and cream tones differs between individual lamps. This is a feature of Tiffany-style construction, not a manufacturing defect.

Can it be used with one bulb instead of two?

Yes. Both E27 sockets are wired in parallel, so the lamp works with either one or two bulbs installed. Using a single bulb produces softer ambient light; using two bulbs increases output for task lighting or reading.

How is the glass cleaned?

Dust the shade regularly with a soft dry cloth or a feather duster. For deeper cleaning, use a barely-damp microfibre cloth on each glass panel, avoiding the soldered bronze framework. Do not use spray cleaners or submerge the shade in water.
