Maybeck 2 Light Tiffany Table Lamp - Valiant Bronze

The Maybeck is a 406mm-diameter Tiffany table lamp with a conical art glass shade composed of individually cut and soldered glass pieces in blues, ambers, creams and red accents, set on a valiant bronze resin base. The shade uses traditional Tiffany construction methods — each piece of art glass is wrapped in copper foil and soldered along the seams to form a rigid geometric pattern that radiates from the central cap. Two E27 bulbs inside the shade cast light through the coloured glass, creating overlapping colour washes on surrounding surfaces.

Designed for side tables, console tables and bedroom nightstands, the Maybeck suits traditional and transitional interiors where decorative lighting is part of the room scheme. The 629mm total height positions the shade at comfortable eye level when seated, making it functional for reading or ambient lighting in living rooms and bedrooms. The dual-bulb configuration distributes light more evenly across the shade than single-bulb Tiffany lamps, reducing the dark zones common in larger shades. The valiant bronze finish on the base is a dark brown-bronze tone with green-brown undertones that anchor the multicoloured shade without competing visually.

Each Maybeck shade is assembled by hand, so the exact placement and tonal variation of the glass pieces differ between individual lamps. The art glass itself varies in opacity — some sections are translucent and glow when backlit, while others are more opaque and act as visual structure within the overall pattern. The base includes carved leaf detailing moulded into the resin, echoing the Arts and Crafts influence of original Tiffany designs. The lamp operates via two pull-chain switches that allow each bulb to be controlled independently.

What bulbs does it take?

The Maybeck takes two E27 (Edison screw) bulbs, each up to 60W maximum. Bulbs are sold separately. Most users pair this with warm-white LED or vintage-style filament bulbs between 4-8W and 2700K to complement the warm tones in the art glass.

Are the two bulbs controlled separately?

Yes. The lamp has two pull-chain switches, one for each bulb, allowing you to use one bulb for lower ambient light or both bulbs for full brightness.

Does the glass shade vary between lamps?

Yes. Each shade is assembled by hand from individually cut pieces of art glass, so the exact placement, tonal variation and colour distribution differ between lamps. This is a feature of handcrafted Tiffany-style construction, not a defect.

What surface area does it need?

The base footprint is approximately 150mm square. The shade overhangs to 406mm diameter, so the lamp needs a table or nightstand at least 450mm wide to sit comfortably without the shade extending beyond the edge.
