The History of Meyda Tiffany
Well over thirty years ago, Meyda Tiffany was founded when Meyer Cohen was asked by his wife Ida (hence the name Meyda) to build a stained glass window in their kitchen so they would haven't to look at the vintage cars in their neighbor's driveway. What began as a hobby evolved into America's leading and oldest manufacturer of Tiffany lamps and decorative lighting.
More than a decade ago, Meyda acquired Quality Bent Glass Company, which created original lighting fixtures, including the famous Coca-Cola chandeliers. This company supplied them to Tiffany Studios in New York City, during the turn-of-the-century. Meyda utilized QBG's original tools, molds and techniques to create lighting products today.
In the mid-1990s, Meyda purchased Mecco Art, a metal art studio, and utilizes its equipment and manufacturing techniques to produce the Old Forge line of forged steel sculptured lighting and decor. The line, which features original, natural and wildlife themes, includes lamps, chandeliers, figurines, candleholders, towel racks, bookends, switch plates, coat racks, napkin holders, log holders, fireplace screens, and other home accents. Their classic Mission-style lighting also grew with this acquisition.
Today Meyda Tiffany is still a family run business, with Meyer and Ida's son, Robert, at the helm. With dealers across the U.S. and Canada, Meyda offers an extensive line featuring thousands of styles-- from accent pieces to masterpieces. Many of Meyda's lighting designs were inspired by the works of Louis Comfort Tiffany, Frank Lloyd Wright, Dirk Van Erp, Gustav Stickley and many other design luminaries. Some have been handcrafted of copperfoil and reverse-painted art glass, porcelain, jadestone, mica and other fine mediums. Others were influenced by popular art movements: Arts and Crafts, Prairie, Lodge, Mission, Bungalow, Victorian, Nouveau, Gothic, Southwest and Deco.
The firm's extensive line includes table and floor lamps, ceiling pendants, flush mount and semi-flush mount, chandeliers, wall sconces, windows, fireplace screens, furniture, and more. With one of the industry's most extensive new product development programs, Meyda creates scores of new designs weekly.
