Flames Where Can I Get A Tiffany Lamp?

Hey folks, I've recently been shopping for a nice Tiffany Lamp for a birthday present, and the only place I';ve found that sells one is Carrington Lighting on Crowchild Trail, and those are a bit too big and also too expensive.

I'm looking for something a bit smaller than that, to fit on top of a desk. Does anyone know where to get one?

I picked up a Tiffany-style lamp at Liquidation World a couple years ago. The shade is plastic, not stained glass. It looks very nice and was very inexpensive. Since you are looking for something that isn't too expensive, I assume that you will be going for a plastic shade. You might want to check them out.

I first thought of the pop-star from the 80's and wondered why anybody would want a lamp of her.

Go to a typical massage parlour and get a regular massage, then when the girl is done, say "How about a tiffany lamp?" If you're lucky, she'll name her price, and you can agree to it. Then just get into the position (which I assume you already know or you wouldn't be asking about it) and enjoy!

You are right about the Tiffany Studios being the originators behind the lamps (along with Clara Driscoll), but nowadays it denotes a certain style of lamp.

That's what I figured, but Urban Dictionary didn't have anything on it. I guess that's why it's "not even close to funny"?

Isn't he suggesting that "How about a tiffany lamp?" is code for a "rub and tug"?

Yes, I do get it. That is the reason I posted the explanation.
